"Treazure's Masterpieces"
M.S. 035 Stephen Decatur
Teacher: Jacqueline Du
I really wanted to share some of my childhood items that really made my childhood special. I have gotten inspired by Basquiat and the materials he used. Also a major thing that got me inspired was my childhood experience. Basquiat got inspired by his childhood and used color pencils, paper and crayons in his artwork. I hope people will see an inspiring artist when they look at my artwork and get good references from it.

"Too Much Work"
M.S. 035 Stephen Decatur
Teacher: Jacqueline Du
I crumpled little pieces of paper to show sometimes I get frustrated with my work. What inspired me to do this project was how Basquiat showed that little things that are in your house can be made into a painting. Basquiat sends a message that anything is possible when you put your mind to it. When people look at my project I want them to see how I feel. My message to all kids is never give up and just tell yourself you can do it no matter what happens.

"Memories"
M.S. 035 Stephen Decatur
Teacher: Jacqueline Du
I can't go outside a lot because it’s a global pandemic. I made this project by finding materials in my house. Dolls were a big part of my childhood and I really wanted to add the same ones I played with as a child. The way I was working was like Basquiat, how he listened to music. When Basquiat used to do his work he didn’t buy a lot of materials to work with-- he used the materials that could find. I was also inspired by Maggie Lee’s work who used a fish tank and made childhood references.

I was inspired by the asymmetry, color, lines, and symbols of Basquiat's work. His art is very different from what I usually create and this project gave me an outlet to free myself of the neat status quo of traditional portraits and illustrations.

The person in the middle represents whoever you want it to and the circles are the persons Ora. The smaller circles represent her emotions, and the bigger one represents her state of mind.

My art only has one word and even though it’s one word it explains a lot and that word is Monachopsis. The main meaning of Monachopsis is the feeling of being out of place. It is a hard word to pronounce and read but it has a big definition.

People have their own religions and beliefs, including Islam. [My artwork] lets the viewer think about their own beliefs, maybe even their favorite instruments.

My statement that I was trying to come up with the ideas is to show your self identity by using any object that you think would fit your art. So I used a cap to fit my art because in the past I've used a cap on some of my arts and I said to myself why not use the cap to fit the art with the things I love.

I made this art by using different images and symbols that meant something to me; stuff that has its own place in my mind or heart. I made it to show a piece of different things that I'm thinking about from my games to social and political matters in this country.

My work represents my favorite snacks, my hobby, my religion and social issues that are happening in the world in the present. I made it with images from the internet. I put it into a collage to represent it in an interesting way. The crescent and star represents the symbol of my religion Islam. With a picture of the holy quran on the right side corner. With a mosque which is the place Muslims do prayer. On the left side is a monitor on the table that has the word hobby on the screen. With a computer and a controller next to it. Below it has a Xbox console, which represents that im a gamer and gaming is my hobby. The all lives matter connects to a peace sign that has different colors which represents the different races. There should be peace between all the races. The piece in the middle is one of my old art pieces from this school which also represents taking the vaccine. The bottom left corner says hip hop and it is circled. That represents my favorite type of music genre. Lastly, I took one of my art works from a few weeks ago that says Palestine Lives Matter. Underneath it I found an image that people are holding a sign for Palestine lives matter. I believe it is important for this awareness because the sad truth is that our tax money that we pay is going towards harming people in Palestine.

Making my artwork started when I was walking around my house looking for things to include in my project. I wanted it to be
meaningful to me. So I got some seashells because I love the beach
and printed out lyrics to my favorite song and highlighted my favorite
lines and words in the song. I put a lot of other things meaningful to me on top of that.
