Artwork Title: Family Values

12” x 9” on Card stock with Miscellaneous Materials

Inspiration behind this piece was to take scraps and trash from around my house to create a collage representing memories with my family members. The idea was to create a juxtaposition of the trash- something that is essentially worthless to represent my family- the thing that means the most to me. Each scrap has a story behind it from each of my family members. I also added their initials and a page from a book about parenting to tie it all together.
