Meta Plan of Action

Top 3 Modes of Engagement

This in depth project its been a challenge, This plan was my second idea because I decide the feather and rose plan was too Etsy and decorative. Since this project was release I had in mind that I wanted to do something related to female power. After changing my mind about the feather and the rose I start to think what other object I can use for this purpose. I thought of using tampons but I did not know how to approach the items since is something so obvious. Then I remember that I had a whole bag of this medical arrows and that I should use them in the name of art. I did my research and I discovered that this medical arrows are sterilization accessories. My connection was between the sterilization and the organ that gives life and birth. I wanted to do something that contrast in order to make it powerful!

Ovary Fail: First Sketch

My first idea was to make an ovary with the medical arrows.

It was halfway done but I was recommended to

keep the ovary sacred because of it meaning.

I debate what I needed to do in order to complete this task successfully and the process was really frustrating. I was running out of time and just the idea of starting from zero was stressing. At the end I decide to keep the "ovary" piece for my own and start the metamorphosis project from zero. I am going to finish "the ovary" and keep it for my space as a daily reminder of female power.

Ovary Fail: Tracing

At the end I decide to start from zero without leaving my concept of "Female Power". I decide to make a conceptual vulva. I feel proud of the final result because I used materials and tools I never used before like a hot gun and spray paint. It was the first time I do something this abstract, but I think it work at my favor. I feel I took the failure of the ovary as an opportunity to grow and experiment. Even with the pressure of running out of time I enjoy the experience of going out of my comfort zone and try something new.
