My Final Major Project, The Mindless Form, reflects my interpretation of a body stripped of consciousness as an empty, motionless shell. I began this journey through the lens of mind-body dualism, captivated by the notion that the mind exists independently from the physical form. As the project evolved, I developed a deeper philosophical connection to this concept, ultimately manifesting a form that is mindless yet structurally human. I drew parallels between human anatomy in relation to nature’s manifestations, finding profound inspiration in wave-sculpted sand ripples, which shaped the flow and texture of my garment. The mask symbolizes the fragility and intangibility of human connection like how we speak, emote, and exist as sentient beings, yet often remain unseen.
