The Forgotten

Whattup! After a week of struggling with allergies and "artist's block", I have finally decided on an idea for this project. My piece will be dealing with "The Forgotten". There are so many people and things that we take for granted, throw away, put aside, overlook, abandon, and forget as we live our lives and I hope to create an art piece that will help us remember. My collection will consist of commonly neglected/forgotten items, pictures that depict the idea, and personal items of mine that I have forgotten. So far my list of items include:

1. favorite stuffed animal from childhood

2. baby blanket

3. photos/drawings depicting neglect

4. photos of senior citizens (grandma... :'( RIP)

5. unsung heroes

6. buttons

7. pennies

8. friends

9. couch (because I always find forgotten items under or inside the couch)

10. boxes (the graveyard for many forgotten items)

11. IF ANYONE HAS ANY SUGGESTIONS PLEASE LEAVE ME A MESSAGE! THANKS!!!

Extra Materials:

1. Light

2. Dark Cloth

3. Glue

As of now I am not sure how this piece will look, but I want to be able to reproduce the feeling of being forgotten/loneliness through my art.
