Title A name given to the resource Flower Eye Spider Subject The topic of the resource LibArt 2025 Description An account of the resource I like to imagine that there are little flower creatures disguised as wildflowers running around in grassy fields. They could be seeing eye pets for fairies or the watchers of nature. As a child, my mind was fantastical, and in my work, I enjoyed tapping into that time of my life in order to keep it alive in my adult world. Utilizing the cloisonne technique and transparent enamel, I created the flower eye spider and fabricated my first-ever enamel housing depicting an eye with dangling tears representing the struggle of growing up with those childlike ideals still showing in the mind’s eye.

Title A name given to the resource I Saw Myself There Subject The topic of the resource LibArt 2025 Description An account of the resource In this collage portrait, I combine Artemisia Gentileschi’s "Judith Beheading Holofernes" and Caravaggio’s "The Calling of St. Matthew", using colored paper and red glitter to explore themes of justice, identity, and personal awakening. I insert myself into the composition to embody the space between violence and revelation, connecting Gentileschi’s depiction of empowered resistance with Caravaggio’s portrayal of divine calling. The red glitter flows through both narratives, symbolizing blood, transformation, and the emotional intensity of reclaiming power. Each layered piece of paper reinforces the idea that identity is not singular but built through tension, struggle, and reflection. By blending these two Baroque masterpieces with personal symbolism, the collage becomes a visual statement of resilience, purpose, and the ongoing process of self-discovery.

Title A name given to the resource Through the veil of light, they lean, Suspended between shadow and gleam Subject The topic of the resource LibArt 2025 Description An account of the resource Inspired by the grandeur and emotional intensity of Baroque art, the piece blends traditional elements with a modern sensibility. The figure, leaning against a ladder, evokes contemplation and vulnerability, reminiscent of Caravaggio’s chiaroscuro technique, but with a vibrant color palette that departs from the usual dark tones. Rich purple and yellow fabrics envelop the figure, while a splash of red introduces urgency and energy, adding a contemporary twist to the Baroque style. The composition explores the tension between stillness and motion, presence and absence, using light, shadow, and color to reflect both the emotional depth of the past and a fresh, modern interpretation of the human experience.
