Artist’s Statement: My artwork is a cut out of an abandoned ferris wheel. I used movement elements to make it look as if the ferris wheel was actually moving. The inspiration behind this piece is the skyview ferris wheel in Atlanta. I wanted to create something simple, but also a statement. Then, I made the ferris wheel abandoned to make it even more “out of the box.”
