The Release



 

My triptych montage represents a series of events. It is also somewhat representational of what I'm going through right now. With school starting I found this montage to clearly depict what some people are facing not only as we begin school, but also just some of the most common stresses of life. I have decided to name this piece The Release. As you may have already noticed these montages are quite simply about stress. The first montage represents stress coming into your life, the various forms of stress, and how we all run into great amounts of stress at some point in our lives. The second montage is a representation of how we can later become entirely consumed by stress. The stresses we take in can control everything, and if we let it completely take us over we will merely become a puppet of stress. It decides how are day, week, month, or even year is going to go. Last but not least, the third montage represents "the release". This is where you decide that the stresses of life are no longer going to control you, but yet you are going to control them. You overcome your stresses and you take your life back, and you no longer let stress ruin your life, future, or your happiness.
