  2. Everyone is always caught up with whatever they have going on in their lives. People on a daily basis deal with work, money, government, news, technology, and the list continues. But in reality, WE are not a big deal. As humans, we bring ourselves to be a big deal through the rules and regulations that we deal with on a daily basis. What about no rules and regulations? What about no sort of structure in society? What would the planet even feel like? Basically what I am trying to depict is a world There is infrastructure, but no structure to keep it maintained. In this sense, without laws and without internet, etc, what would society look like? Three artists that really inspired me are Andy Warhol for his illuminating contrasting colors that I am interested in using in the piece.

A few years back, when one of the pieces sold at an auction for four-point-something million, I thought, I didn’t change, the world changed.” John Baldessari
