Importance of Sun

In the Museum piece, I was most inspired by the construction, and how that made vertical lines into a zig-zag shape, accentuating the round shape. In my own piece, I wanted to be influenced by the traveling my parents did between Bolivia and Kansas in order to be together. My father comes from the Sunflower State, with some of the most vibrant sunsets on earth, and my mother comes from Incan descent. [Incans] consider themselves Children of the Sun because of Inti, sun god of the Incan Empire. My parents eventually merged their backgrounds through travel.
