Artist statement part 2
This picture goes well with my personality because, I am a typical traditional girl, who believe in family values for example my parent tough me to respect everyone and take care of people who care about me too and always nice to people. By looking at my face, I look very innocent and shy girl but inside I am strong girl with positive attitude. I treat people how they treat me. I am a emotional people but i don't like to show my feel in front of people because I am a private person. I act happy around people because I don't want to show my weakness and I don't want them to think I am a weak person.
Reflection part 3
peoples believe that life's not fair. we all have obstacles to overcome. The reality of life is that some of us have to work harder than other to be successful. so, they believe perspective has to do with personal life. people think that because, we all have different perspective based on what we have follow and believed on. people think that because we all come from different country and we believe in different value. All people experience in different way which make people think that we have different perspective on same things.
"Everyone goes through different situation"("race"). "$100 race" trying to show that don't give up thinking your behind with everyone. " you have to run your race even though your behind people, if you want to achieve your goal than you have to run no matter what"("race"). we have our own personal problem to deal with and not everyone have a same problem like yours. people think everything they prejudice is right but they are wrong because if you talk with people than you will know what type of people they are and how nice and kind people they are. you can't judge people by their race and can't make statement by looking at face. Instead of judging people go talk with them and know their life story. I'm-pretty sure that statement you made about them will prove wrong.
Growing up as a trans is very hard. They have to go through lot of bad time. people will don't understand them. They judge and bully them. people will say bad things about them." I don't want to be different"( Growing"). They are trying their best to fit with this world by going hospital and doing medical treatment to transform their body to the body they want, so they will be comfortable with it and live a life happily. So, No one can knows that they are transgender. some peoples support them but some don't. For example, when I was watching video, I see some of father don't support their child and they think that is not right. "I'm just afraid with medicial"("Growing").
I believed that based on what we have experience in our life, we see things in different way. when I was in Nepal, I thought united states was a very beautiful and peaceful country because I grew up in small village where I have seen a violence's happened. Now I’m living in US, I have seen big crime and now whenever I use social media i see most of video about people being killed and big violence's.
Great work! I love how the flash fiction, portrait and reflection all connect back to your culture and how you were raised. I was not raised the same as you, and I cannot image the shock of arriving in America and seeing all the hidden facts come to life. The violence must be extremely scary and shocking. Your culture will always be a part of you and I am glad you embrace it!
ReplyDeleteI think you did a great job with your flash fiction. I like how you used the third person point of view in it. I would think it is hard getting used to a new environment but violence isnt just in one part of the world. its in human nature.
ReplyDeleteThis is a beautiful piece! My favorite line was probably in your artist statement, "By looking at my face, I look very innocent and shy girl but inside I am strong girl with positive attitude." I liked that line a lot because it shares a lot more about you. The picture is what drew me to this piece, because you weren't wearing the clothes most people would wear. But you wear it confidently(you look beautiful in it btw). And I like how you based it on your traditions!
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed how you talked about your culture and haven't let anything change that.
ReplyDeleteI feel like you did a great job and i liked how you used your culture because its something that is big for you and not just something fake.
ReplyDeleteI really liked this piece, your flash fiction and your picture do a great job about showing how you follow tradition in your family and how you're always nice to people. You also did a really good job in your artist statement, I could picture the innocence and the strong positive vibes. You did really good!!
ReplyDeleteI really like how you wrote about something that was bigger than you were, your culture. I think you did a good job explaining how those values are different from the traditional American values. The picture really reflects this because you are wearing something that is probably a very important garment in your culture. Overall, all three parts tie together to create a powerful image in readers' minds.
ReplyDeleteYour flash fiction was really good. I thought it was really interesting about how you talked about your culture.
ReplyDeleteConcise but very informative, the discussion of your culture throughout the flash fiction gives good insight about your past.
ReplyDeleteI like how you use violence's as your example on your reflection. Since we are from same culture I am related to your flash fiction and everything you said was true.
ReplyDeleteyour picture grabbed my attention with all the colors and the light through the trees. so beautiful! keep on shining! your whole piece is very good.
