THE LAST ONE~~~~XDD
---------------------------------------------
This piece of artwork is a Japanese traditional paper crane, but instead of being folded with a piece of paper, it was folded with a large piece of transparent plastic sheet with the “stomach” or the centre of the crane filled with colorful folded stars.
The crane was folded with plastic and therefore mostly transparent but some parts that had multiple layers of it folded together had become translucent instead. The wings have yellow and white straws on both side to hold up the wings better. The stars in the centre of the crane are not folded with really bright colors either, mostly light colors such as white with other colors such as pink, lime green, light yellow and blue.
This artwork represents all desires coming true or at least the wish for such. It could be easily interpreted this way since both paper stars and cranes are believe to be able to grant wishes. According to Japanese beliefs, folding a thousand paper crane would enable you to have a wish granted, where else for stars, they were commonly associated with wishes such as the shooting stars are also called the “wishing star”. To me, wishes are basically the same as what you desire, therefore, the paper crane and stars, both representing wish-come-true, could be said to be “desires-come-true”.
According to the analysis and interpretation above, I would say I judge my last artwork to be, maybe not the best-looking artwork, but definitely the most successful at showing the theme “Our Desire” and sums up all my artwork quite well, seeing as it mean “Desire for all desire to come true.”
