“A Beautiful Mess”
For my performance art, I wanted to do something that allowed for me to feel free and happy. By allowing myself to make a mess both on the canvas and off, I was able to push away the boundaries and find enjoyment in the activity of painting rather than in the finished product. As I was allowing myself to make a mess, something beautiful came through, I felt as though I was a little kid again having fun. It’s silly to think that something so simple as smudging around paint and throwing glitter could give me the peace of mind I had been seeking all week. Everyone should take 5 minutes to do something for themselves, even if it seems silly.
