| dc.description.abstract | The Art thesis titled “From Laughter to Silence” was inspired by a family
member’s struggle with leukemia, which impacted both their physical and mental
health. This situation led to two younger siblings suffering from depression, causing
anxiety for the entire family. Everyone came together to provide close care, healing,
and mutual support. These experiences served as the inspiration for creating this
body of work, to express love, warmth, and heartfelt care for one another. The goal
is to encourage the two siblings and the rest of the family to return to a happy
atmosphere. The artist chose to use octopus dolls and Joker dolls as symbols
representing family members. The artistic composition is created through an
imaginative narrative of visiting an amusement park, reflecting childhood memories.
The work portrays the care, love, and concern between siblings through the process
of intaglio printing, specifically utilizing a 2D etching metal plate technique. | en_US |
