The love letter. Basically during 60’s to 90’s letter was one of the most crucial medium of communication in a long distance relationship.. For my artwork I focus on the subject of love. I have done a research where at that moment there was no internet as one of the medium communication. They can only write a letter and post it. Even though, it took a long period of time to receive the letter but it is worth it. They can keep reading those letter. Compare to today’s medium where there are Facebook, twitter and etc. There is no aesthetic value in it and social network can never convey feelings such as those when writing a letter to person that you love. Basically, the heart shape represent the love between a couple; the soul and the emotion and feelings. However, the wrecked part on the heart does not meant to show that the heart is broken. I intend to cut the heart to show the steel wire as a symbol of firmness of a lover . The steel wire that become the base of the heart depict the heart is not empty. Thus, this artwork silently yet powerfully portrays the strength and the sincerity of the love between the couple even though they live in far away distance.
