Contours Of A Shattered Mirror, by triggercell



Haven't done anything creative in awhile..mostly because I have all these great ideas and no time at all. Contours of a Shattered Mirror was originally a manipulated self-portrait of a 100 faces switched together as one face with a shattered glass effect. The file became INSANELY large, I'm talking 1.7 GB! Ended up using vectors of varying color shades to represent the different faces. For anyone wondering this is hand-drawn! No easy way out there. This is hopefully going to be the last creative stuff I do for awhile...hopefully. Feel free to download a copy. Enjoy!

Tiger Mothers by Donna Dodson




For Convergence: the Boston Sculptors Gallery exhibition on the Christian Science Plaza, I am creating a Tiger Mother figure. This figure was inspired in part by the book 'Battle Hymn of theTiger Mother' by Amy Chua. In the book she talks about raising two daughters, one in a traditional way, and one in a more laid back manner. Since The First Church of Christ Scientist invited me to make two figures for Convergence, that would be installed at  each end of the seating near the fountain, I want to site them facing one another on the plaza, or standing guard like sentinels, facing forward, in the open, since sculpture is best viewed in the round. Taking inspiration from the book, one figure would be a white tiger with black stripes, and one be white tiger with red stripes, symbolizing the two themes about mothering, tradition and love. Tiger Mothers embody the idea that one has to be a different parent to each one of your kids, because every child is unique.
