colors attracted me, as that is normally what I experiment with. Hiroshi Wada works with modernizing the process of "shodo", brush and ink drawing on rice paper. He says that his medium has the power of bring joy and playfulness to the viewers, which is what I tried to do with the colors in my embroidery piece over the summer. Wada also says that hopes the meaning of his pieces is convey to, and felt by, his audience. He tries to reflect relaxation, reflection, and peace. This is similar to my body of work as I try to reflect how I feel while making the pieces in the viewer. The point o my artwork, for the most part, is to make the audience think about other perspectives during difficult times. I am inspired by Hiroshi Wada's use of line quality, and I hope to experiment with something similar in the future.
