Description: Inspired by my previous work of theme, I used the photo of when my class and I took our graduation pictures. This shows the reality of being a step closer to adulthood and college. How I want to feel is seen as my skin tone, red and yellow, happy and excited. But the outside world creeps around me and creates this fear and sadness, blue and purple, about what the future awaits. The analogous colors which are complementary with each other decipher the meaning of reality vs expectation.
