I had a vision waking up this morning of a series of paintings/artwork that would portray skeletons in everyday scenarios. Taking the dog for a walk, sitting on the toilet, making dinner, spending time as a family, ect. Then I would do a series of sculptures with the skeletons doing these things. My idea is that the skeletons would act as metaphors for how we are more than a body, how your time on earth is valuable, how your body is not who you are but rather only the shell of the person inside. Although our bodies are important carriers of aspects of our human traits, the do not make us who we are as people. They may allow or prohibit us from doing certain things important to our inner being but bodies do not define us, that is if we choose not to let them define us.
