My piece is a sculptural representation of the verbal factors that play into suicide. It was created using packing tape, and paint. I chose to shape the human form the way I did to represent a weak, broken human form. The face is buried in between their legs and arm. One arm is hanging freely and blood is running out of the wrist. The figure is black to symbolize death and to contrast with the white words that are painted across the body. The words written are words that are used to inflict emotional harm by many teenagers. Some of these words are highly offensive but are included to make the message stronger.
