If you don't love yourself, how the hell you gonna love somebody else?



Instead of blogging about the lecture (since it was just registration for next semester) I am going to say a little bit about my inspiration for 3d casting. Drag queens have to be one of the most interesting subjects when it comes to identity, gender, and transformation. Another reason I chose to use drag queens as inspiration comes from the intolerance that is around campus. I also see drag as more of an expression of self, much like creating art work, except the canvas is the human body. The response piece will include 5 cast faces in either wax or slip, and transform each of the faces to look like either different types of drag queen personas or show the steps of how to do drag inspired make-up. I hope to also make a book to show the steps, but also include a small excerpt on why tolerance and self-love are important aspects of life.
