Religion

Movement, This week i was looking at religion as a movement,this stemmed from the idea of an action creating a reaction, this lead to the idea of St.Veronica giving Jesus a cloth to wipe his face while he carried his cross, the image of his face remained on that cloth, this lead to my research in iconic and religious images, i started to think of the effects of religion on society , like war , terrorism pain, rules restrictions,sins and how good and bad are intertwined.I looked at religious gestures and anotomy also. furthermore i looked at destressing paper due to motions of anger such as scrunching and ripping paper.
 I looked at flowers and asked does everything have a soul? I looked at images that were powerful and conveyed the pain and suffering of war due to religion, i started to look at innocents and innocents lost,i began to think of the poem shodow doll trapped in marraige and thought about creating a wedding dress from images of war hurt, pain caused by religion.
Then i drew myself to the idea of creating a person from the every day "sins" of the students i was going to create a confession box im order to creat this.
