The title of my piece is “there is nothing stranger than
people” this phrase comes from something that my grandmother would often say
when looking out the window at something that the neighbours are doing. this
became the basis of my concept that we all judge each other . I believe that it
is a very stereotypical thing when living in the middle classes to be more
interested in what the neighbours might be doing or what they might think, we
live in a society of judgment but also a charade of keeping up appearances out
of fear of how others might perceive us. But the reality is you never know what
goes on behind closed doors. It is hard to know what someone is capable of.
We often wrongly judge people and we never truly know what’s
underneath. This is where my use of half bird half human creatures comes into
play, my concept is that if everyone that was good or bad could be determined
by looking different for example having a vultures head could show you’re a
scavenger or a hawk to show you are a predator we would be able to easily tell
what anyone is capable of however this is not how the world works, people put
on a charade and a face for others to see , this raises the question of what
does evil or good look like? And the truth is they both look the same.
