Artist Statement
When making this piece I had my husband in mind. I wanted to create a map that he helped form, which is the way to my heart. I placed a realistic heart in the center and layered different pathways that lead to it and away from it, but eventually each path leads to it. I also incorporated stage lighting to give the map movement and the heart in the center movement. My husband has been teaching me about stage lighting and it has opened a whole new set of doors for a possible medium to use. The light mixes with the pigment of the paint that I used, and when the light changes color, the pigment will change into a contrasting color. I was able to control the speed of the lights and try to match it to make the heart look like it was beating underneath all of the layers.
