The Happiness Project [Analog]

Childhood memories are some of the most precious keepsakes to hold dear to your heart—especially as you grow up. Sometimes you have to remind yourself how it felt to be a kid, and memories from your adolescence can help you do just that. Whether it’s remembering something that made you smile or brought out the happiest part of you, certain childhood memories just stick with you for a lifetime.

This project aims to bring out the fond memories of childhood by recovering a common childhood that many kids have- colourful balls. In the world today, people are too cope up in their own circle of thoughts and so stressed with life that we tend to forgets the little bits of life we are actually thankful to have.

Connections, love, toys, justice, clothing, a house and many more…

We are equipped with so many things that some people in the world are not lucky to have. These are the things they thought to be happiness while we are taking it for granted. Hence, through this small installation, I would like my audience to stop and reflect on their own happiness for awhile.

I have placed my objects on water to signify something intangible while attaching them to reels situated on the land. This shows that while we tend to ignore the possesions of these objects we are entitled of, we can actually “reel” them in at an instant touch.
