Reflection Statement 

The surface pattern titled Juni's World was inspired by the artist Banaoddromo. My intent is to visually communicate what a cat's mind looks like. I wanted to focus on having a fun and playful design because I really enjoyed Banaoddromo's funny designs. I decided to include my digital drawings. I want to keep exploring surface pattern designs using my digital drawings and also using my photography. This piece allowed me to explore new meanings of art and step out of my comfort zone. The making of this work exposed new ideas such as anything can be made into a beautiful pattern.

Each piece is attached in a way a puzzle would be not glued or held by something else. Because even during the hardest times in life you are the only one who can hold yourself up. The marbles are placed in a way of being on your journey of life. The gabs and marbles that are not clustered together represent being lost or alone until you find your way back on your path. I wanted it to be able to hold flowers like a vase because we as human beings hold such a special place on earth.

Surface Design (without the pattern part) can be a good catch-all for how to describe designing for mass-manufactured products that are both patterned and engineered designs
