I really love this piece because unlike the Day of the Dead piece I made the holes more bigger and that it a lot easier when it came to attach the lights and taking clear photos. I love that the simple skull and detail wings give off a meaning that there is death around us but the wings say that there is something good almost taking the ugly and transforming it with something beautiful and full of wonder.
With the lights instead of putting different colour lights in this piece I chose to stick to white fairy-lights making the piece still have that light element but it doesn’t overpower the dots and the image itself I believe this works really well and you still get that movement effect like in Day of the Dead and in way they both link within on another both expressing death but showing the beauty behind the story and I wanted the viewer to really see and look at the pattern that dots is making the emotion behind each one.
