About this artwork
Do you remember playing with toys as a kid? Watching childhood TV shows that made you laugh? Or the simple joy of having no worries except choosing your favorite color?Being a kid was all about being yourself and having fun, without stress or worry. As we grow up, we develop new traits and face responsibilities— balancing work, well-being, and the pressure of figuring life out. In the process, we might forget where it all started and overlook the inner child within us, waiting to be rediscovered.These sculptures are designed to awaken that inner child. Inspired by the toys and memories that linger in our minds, my work aims to reconnect you with your past, reminding you of the universal experiences that unite us all, even as we each follow our unique paths. Each sculpture is crafted from once-cherished toys, combined with wood and retro Tv’s. I invite you to explore ‘Memory Lane’ and re-discover the moments that made your childhood special. Take a step back from this chaotic world, and remember—it’s okay to be your true self. 3 different size lamps (inches) -72” x 4” -60” x 4” -42” x 4” LED color changing lights
