Chicken

The ultimate goal of this project was to create a unified artwork with 13 pieces out of 100 interpretations that visually communicates a theme: chicken.

I was thinking about chicken every day and everywhere in order to understand chicken from different perspectives. What would I see if I were the chicken? I even learned how to dance The Chicken Dance. I kept sketching any ideas that came to my mind to better understand the theme.

The final piece shows the strength and the beauty that chickens have and the strong presence in human’s culture and lives.
