Mandy Stein
Background
Capturing the Moment
The Thesis:
Our ambitions for this project were to portray the two primary themes of Stein's life. The difficulty of making monumental (life-changing!) decisions and having to be resilient despite the strenuous tasks one may undertake. The way in which we did this was by using a unique form of sculptural craft known as shadow art.
