No Place Like Home

With this piece, I hoped to achieve a feeling of pain when leaving your home behind, and living in a completely new place. I decided to do these by recreating a very close replica to my room back home. In my piece, there are objects that mean a lot to me that made me who I am today that are back home since I couldn’t bring them to college. In a way it’s almost as if I left a part of me behind since I moved to college. There are also noises in my piece that were normal things that I would hear, but now I rarely hear these sounds. Some of these sounds were things that gave me a sense of peace and nostalgia.
