The road not taken
Personal art project
This work created in 2014 explores the concept of ‘the road not taken’, inspired by the poem Robert Frost, the major paths in our life where we could have gone in a different direction. We think of what might have been, yet acknowledge that our lives might not be better if we went down a different path.
I created four artworks to reflect the four stanzas of the poem by Robert Frost. The subjects of my first two artworks are about my scoliosis, and the path I wonder about, dance. The other two artworks are based on my mother’s choice to be a full time mother and the path she once considered – joining the navy. The artworks are a collage of imagery that reflects a mood created by personal experience and conversations along with elements of memory – photographs and scans of documents. The 3D element for each piece is based on a prominent visual resulting from the conversation.
