For my project I decided to make a model of a little blue bird figurine I gave one of my friends last year. Our relationship has had a lot of ups and downs, and I wanted to show that through the bird's cut off tail. I wanted to use a casting material that was more fragile and not as durable. I thought using wax would add more meaning to the bird because if the bird was placed in the sun or under too much heat, it would melt, ruining its form. This relates to my relationship with my friend because things build up over time (sun/heat) and then we fight (bird melting).

I decided to use wax melts because the wax can be melted down and the bird destroyed. I thought this fit with the sad theme of the bird with a broken tail, symbolizing a broken relationship.

I also thought of using the leftover glycerin soap for my material, but I didn't think it held the right meaning for the bird.

I used the bottom of a ritz box for my mold box and sealed it off using packing tape

1) My car keys. I've only had my car for a couple months now, but before I got it, I felt really trapped in my apartment. They would symbolize the freedom I feel now that I can go wherever I want whenever I want.
2) Bird with broken wing/tail. Last year I gave my friend a little blue bird token that symbolizes happiness, but we've never had a very good relationship. The broken part would symbolize one of the many fights we're going through now and how I've put so much effort into a relationship that has never worked.
3) Music note with heart. This would symbolize my love for music and playing guitar.
