My object is a paper mache cup from a play I was in. This object doesn’t have any particular specific influence as to who I am, but it relates directly to my identity as a ”theater person.” Before I did any performance arts, I was a completely different person, I didn’t talk to people, I didn’t have any friends, I was a raging cynic. But after I had friends in theater they asked me if I wanted to try improv, and one thing led to another and I found a whole new outlook on life, I wanted to entertain. And while I have no real personal attachment to this object, what this object represents does. Image by K.steudel on flickr
