Home Concentration 6

For this piece, I wanted to include a symbol that wasn't super obvious upon first glance. I chose to use the silhouette of the angel that Grinch makes for Martha when they are kids as the basis for the piece. During the flashback in the movie, the angel ends up being shattered to pieces, so I wanted to tie that in by fragmenting the silhouette. 

Because the broken angel serves as a symbol for Grinch's broken childhood, I wanted to counterbalance that with positive scenarios to show that Martha was the light in his life. 

I wanted to stick with the pastel color scheme of the sets, so that was my thought process behind the background colors. I really like the way the three colors I chose look together and I think they work with the toned background well. I also thought it would look interesting if I added a dark shadow under each of the fragments to further show that they are separated from each other.
