About "The Colors of Love"
When I began to do this project, I did not know how to do it. Exactly, I did not understand it. I remembered the day when my lecturer asked everyone to bring one photo and one artefact to class for next week tutorial, I talked to my classmate about it. After that, when I was clearer about this assigment, I had to choose a topic for my project. Firstly, I thought about the eyes. I planed to do something about my childhood and my family through the eyes of my nephew. I am the youngest girl in my family. I just have an older sister. My sister has a girl and a boy. I am very close friend of my niece. I have followed her when she just was born. When I came to Australia, she was 11 years old. While, my nephew was just 1 year old. My parents and my sister often tell me about him and send his photos to me. However, I changed my mind during researching. When I remembered my childhood and my life, I thought about the love. I asked myself many times what color of my love is. And I felt it was very interesting. This reminded me something in major project instruction handout: "You are heading off in a direction but you don't know the destination and you may change directions many times. But going off course is encouraged!". |

"The past is not simply there in memory, but it must be articulated to become memory. Rather than remembering or ignoring it, this split should be understood as powerful stimulant for cultural and artistic creativity. (Huyssen, 1995: 2) |
