Friends Grow Apart

April 5, 2016 ASAA

4.-Friends-Grow-Apart
(1st Place – Textile / Fiber Design)

Title of Art Piece: Friends Grow Apart
Category: Textile/Fiber Design – 2016
Student/Artist’s Name: Ally Barker
School: Palmer High School
Grade: 12th
Artist Statement: Friends Grow Apart, Ally Barker, 2015, 78.74cmX27.94 embroidery thread, wood, and nails,
For this project I wanted to illustrate how childhood friends often grow apart from each other. I was inspired by my own memories of my closest friend in elementary school, and how this is the case with our relationship. I chose to use embroidery thread and the knotting technique used in friendship bracelets to emphasize the subject. I chose to use color symbolism to show how we had things in common but came from fundamentally different backgrounds which is part of why we grew apart.
