Encapsulating Scars, Ashley Smith
Encapsulating Scars, Ashley Smith
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
My work explores scars through encapsulation, a desire to enclose and express the emotional scars of memories or physical scars of the body. Life’s experiences impact the living, leaving behind scars that we feel the need to understand. Through the mediums of metal and mixed-media photography, I utilize found and created imagery, as well as a triality of text in order to preserve and remember these scars.
