YU'S WORK 3

Printmaking




A New Artwork -- Pie's Fate
My New artwork is kind of experiment and research.
I am interested in how people distribute things. How would it comes out for people in different age, gender or background?I would print a picture of a whole cake and hand out to people at school, and they can get a feedback card along with the "cake". One can just follow his or her mind to cut off one piece of cake in whatever shape or size. (just think this piece is for oneself) Finally I will collect every cards and every unique piece of cake, put them together in a special way.

PS: I AM NOT SURE IF MY STATEMENT IS CLEAR ENOUGH FOR MY PURPOSE. MOREOVER, I AM NOT SURE IF I AM SPEAKING IN A NATIVE WAY. PLEASE, GIVE ME SOME ADVICE. THANK YOU!
