As animals, we possess the impulse to find a sense of familiarity, “of home,” wherever life has taken us. This yearning for a place to belong emphasizes the importance of longing. Though we may not always find what we’re looking for, though we may never again come across “home,” the fulfillment of that desire isn’t what’s crucial. It’s the desire itself. My artwork arises from a displacement of home. No longer a physical place, it now exists in my heart and memories. “Change of Heart” explores the uncertainty of a future and how quickly one small decision can completely alter one’s intended plan. Leaving the hereafter vacant, one may utilize their past experiences to explore an alternative outcome. Through the exploration of storytelling and ethology, I construct moments of anxiety and fear that collide with a world of ambiguous subconsciousness that reflects a journey to discover home once again.
