For my final project, I decided to incorporate stuff about my past, present, and future. The past (right side of portrait) shows how I went through forms of patriarchy by being called to "man up" by many male figures growing up. I also didnt fit societies norms for the ideal male look, I was looked down upon by many females in just walking the hallways of my high school. The broken heart represents rejection, in all the forms I experienced it in highschool such as relationships, friendships, and family. My future career aspects at the time were unknown to me, I faced much pressure from succeeding in life and just striving to graduate highschool. In the middle represents the present and what I'm going through. The top has a sign that says "Wealth" and that is to show that I am taking control of my money to have a more financially stable future. The middle shows a human body to represent my realization that I am human, I make mistakes just as anyone else and that no one is perfect. The bottom of it shows a cat with the words around it saying "Stop being a pussy", this is a dark side of the portrait and the meaning behind it is that I cant seem to throw away that saying that has brought me much pain in the past because I still hear it all the time from my family. The very bottom shows four aspects that I am currently progressing in to better my life. The left side of the portrait represents the future and what I hope to see in it. In the top left is a heart made from money, I hope to see a financially stable future so I can feel more secure about my life. Below it is a womans silhouette to represent that I want feminism to progress in the future. Below that is a time management picture, its pretty much self explanatory, I will improve my time management skills. The last things are the video games are awesome sentence on the side in which shows Ill never leave my one love of games behind, and the people at the bottom represent careers, In which I hope to get my own career in the future.
