Student Name: Nate Aguirre School: Oswego East Grade: 12 Class: Pottery Mrs. Schmidt UN Sustainable Development Goal: Equality and Environment Brief Artist Statement: The main idea behind my artwork is equality and the environment.This idea is important to me because the world is very divided especially in our current time period. I don’t have a personal connection but I know most of the world gets treated poorly based on location, wealth, ethnicity, etc. and it’s unfair.I want the audience to think about the symmetry within the art and realize what it means and my message of the positives and negatives in this world. Also I want them to think about the environment and the importance of it. The main image is the symmetry representing equality and the colors on the left representing the positive side and the right being the negative side. The symbols within the leaves represent positive and negative objects.
