Losing Meaning though Beholding

Artist statement

I got the idea for the piece when I was in my art class. We were doing little thumbnail sketches with different line weights. I doodled something in the same vein as the final product, but rather crude. After that class, I couldn’t get the concept out of my head. I tried to draw it again, but I was unable to make the dripping effect looking right. What eventually ended up working was studying the way the effect was done in the show “The Summer Hikaru Died”. In fact, a large amount of the piece was inspired from that .
