performing arts,

where my entire self becomes part of the artwork, merging my mind and body into a unified expression. Each movement captures my emotions, making my performance a raw, living canvas of what I feel. I see my body not just as a vessel but as an essential part of the story I am telling. Through performing, I am wholly present, embodying each moment as an inseparable piece of my art.

The Pulse of Relationships

This piece of art uses strands that resemble vibrant blood vessels entwined with my heart to examine the effects of relationships. The heart represents who I am, and the different colors stand for the range of relationships I have. I can be both supported and constrained by relationships.

The various colors of each strand represent the various emotional impacts these relationships have on my life. While some people help me, others hurt me or suppress who I am. Through the use of scissors to cut these strands, I illustrate in the piece how to cut harmful ties. My heart beats more freely with each cut, indicating that I've returned to my true self.

This piece demonstrates the value of relationships by facing and bravely handling those who stand in my way. It emphasizes the significance of self-healing and communicates that courageously letting go of toxic relationships is the path to true freedom and peace.

Performing Art explores in great depth the complex and sometimes contradictory influence that relationships have on defining who I am. I depict how these connections influence my identity with strands that mimic vivid, realistic blood vessels intertwined with my heart. The heart symbolizes my innermost self, while the color of each strand represents the diverse emotions present in my relationships. Certain strands are vibrant and luminous, symbolizing bonds that nurture and uplift me, giving me fortitude and aiding in my development. Some are deeper or less vibrant, representing relationships that limit or restrain me, obscuring my sense of self and occasionally causing damage.

As the performance progresses, I employ scissors to cautiously cut the strands symbolizing these suffocating or harmful connections. Every incision represents a deliberate effort to regain my sense of self and manage my emotional health. With every cut, my heart starts to thump harder, its beat increasing as it's released from the knots that have burdened it. This demonstrates how crucial it is to achieve self-repair and the courage needed to let go of connections that are no longer beneficial to us. The clear, unimpeded heartbeat signifies my return to my true self, filled with newfound drive and meaning.
