1. The title of my work is "Mini Us" 2. I got my ideas from myself, I was quite stressed on that day and just kind of remembered about what makes me happy and feel better. I also thought of a big part of my life and what made me who I am today. 3. My project was all about me finding a way to cope with stress. I am a doll collector. Collecting dolls is my hobby and having dolls opens up my creativity to millions of possibilities. I love creating for my dolls whether it's clothes, carton beds, mini phones and etc. I played dolls ever since I was 5. Of course back then I didn't really know what to do with my dolls besides play with them but now that I grew up I found more ways to express my creativity. Making things for dolls makes me feel so much better. Playing with them feels like an escape from reality. I always play dolls with my sister, it's boring to play alone. My project connects to me because dolls are a huge part of my life and I spend a lot of time on them. 4. The imagery in my project is me and my sister but as dolls. I basically put myself and my sister in our fantasy world. It is one of my unrealistic dreams to just live in our doll world. No responsibilities, no stress, you can have whatever you want. The doll dressed in pink is supposed to be me, she is dressed in my style. The other doll with red hair is my sister. She dreams to have red hair. Her outfit is also based on her favorite colors and style. 5. The materials I used were just old clothes that are too small for us now. So our dolls are wearing our childhood clothes. 6. I want my audience to understand that coping with stress can be anything and you shouldn't be ashamed of it. As long as you're not hurting yourself or someone else, it is perfectly fine to cope with stress in any way you want and you should not be embarassed about it. 7. My art piece is successful to me in my eyes. I represented me and my sister pretty well and put a lot of effort into it. 8. I'd give myself a 7 out of 10 for creativity just because I put a lot of thought into this project. I'd say my situation isn't as rare, I know a lot of people who cope with stress by collecting dolls. I just like playing with them too, that's what is different about my situation. 9. I'd give it a 5/10 on craftswomanship. I probably could've used a better technique on sewing it but I just kind of went along with how and what I remembered about sewing. It didn't feel like I was doing it because I HAD to, it felt like I was doing it for myself. It was fun.
