Art is a Good Way to Talk to Your Brain

Experience

The experience was relaxing. Since I couldn’t do this project with anyone because of this quarantine and social distancing for everyone, I decided a neat twist I could put on the project to make me not “alone” exactly was I listened to a song while I did it. So I listened to Sam Smith – To Die For while I did that and I just tried to focus on the song and let my hand move however it wanted to while listening to the music. So I guess this art piece could be titled the name of the song because I guess this is what my brain thinks about that song. It was fun and relaxing.

Results

I like how my piece came out. I first started to wonder why I made lines in certain places. I wonder if they have like a certain pattern or curve because of how the song made me sway or if those outlier lines are lines in the song that stuck out that I liked or were high pitch or something. But yea, I’m happy with the results and it was a fun little project to work on and see how my brain and hand reacted to just sitting and listening to the song and moving however.
