Shadow Puppet Ashley Hocking Medium Statement: Colored Pencil and Graphite Artist Statement: imagination breaks the confines of physical reality to express who we are. When we focus on materialistic goals and accept that we have limits or a set place in society, we lose the childlike joy that sets us free. The monochromatic hands represent seeing in a ‘black-and-white’ manner, and while we all know a shadow puppet doesn’t truly display a real animal, the colorful bird is a symbol of how we can use our physical bodies to explore, create, and be set free from any constraint through our limitless imagination.
