Description
"People put themselves in boxes I just label them."What happens to you when you label?
One who strives to be themselves.
Those who cannot be easily labeled, weather labeled from afar or not they keep to the label they have dubbed upon themselves.
Plain and simple.
"Myself"
I am me.
Nobody else.
--------------------------------
The point of this series was to express through visual Art the Idea "People put themselves in boxes, I just label them"
The person labeling all the other people was the perseon you see standing before you inside a simple box made of cardboard. He stood next to all the other boxes being quite proud of what he had done.
And when it all comes down to it.
He to is in a box.
Even the person who tries so desperately hard to label everyone else.
Is in a box all to themselves.
They claim to be original.
They claim to be... themselves.
---------------------------------
This is the last photo for the box series, I'm so glad you enjoyed it. <3
It took alot of work, and alot of hours.
We are all quite pleased with it, an I hope you are to.

It just seems so realistic that the Labeler would be faceless. Once again, this is an amazing series.

I love this series... I think that it is not only thought provoking but very smart as well.
Congrats to creating something that is both relevant to the times we live in and something that people need to realize is wrong.
I have yet to see any of your other works, but I plan to do so very shortly because of these great pieces!

well, I guess I would be stuffed into the goth box, with 1 foot in the emo box, the other in the nerd box, my right hand in the confused box, and my left pinky in the raver box......
I guess that means I'm me.

Absolutely wonderful series!
I would probally be in the raver box because I dress like that...but I'm totally NOT a raver. I don't even really have a label I'm just an artist =3
My bf Casey would be in the confused box XD he changes styles every few weeks. [he dressed like a rouge boy scout yesterday]

I honestly don't like the idea behind this series much. I'm neither of those labels.
I'd label you "Judgemental" instead of "yourself" though. Or.. "Wagon jumper".
Very hot Raver-girl though. I'd totally do her, and I'm a girl saying that.

I am looking at those labels on the floor... and the one that says 'Loner'... just strikes me. Its very clever. All alone... in one corner of the paper...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1

<3

Awesome Series!!! I can't wait to see your next one ^_^

Ah yes. I can definately agree to this.
Though, as you said in the first of this series, that we can be ourselves and yet labels are things that other people give us. Such as, an example (off the top of my head) is that if a woman is sexually open and honest about it, she's called a slut, but if she's closed up about it, she can be called a prude.
