John Isaac

I have descided to use clay as a material in my next project. i love sculpting, and i find it very therapeutic and fun to work with. ive descided to concentrate still on obesity, leading on from my other project, i find this interesting and there is so much that i can do with it. i want to look into the oppositions between the eastern and western world. between how one side of the world is starving whilst the other is on a diet. i also want to look into what money has done to western society, whilst the eastern dont have any but they seem to have still stuck to their natural, instinctive routes.
this week whilst thinking about it i want to create sculptures of a person reppresenting my depiction of what these comparisons are. one sculpture is will be of an obese western man sat in a mobility scooter with a mac donalds in one hand and money in the other. showing the greediness and laziness that western society has which could be a cause of money.
Before when i was looking up obesity when doing my other project i was thinking about the way people must feel when they are obese. a feeling of being trapped and monstorous, once i had seen the John Issac piece called i can't help the way i feel, i felt that i should also do a piece demonstrating what i think also.
