For my arscultpure I made a snake altar that comes out of a toilet to embody childhood fears. My project stemmed from an irrational fear I had as a child where I was afraid that a snake would come up the toilet as I sat on it. Through this the sense of threat of the toilet snakes only become apparent when the body is present, so I made the snake head appear out of nowhere when the viewer gets closer to highlight the unexpected nature of this hypothetical event. I had a fair amount of trouble with the scaling and placing of my sculpture so I placed an ideal scenario image underneath which is what I had initially envisioned for this piece.
