Artist Statement: One of the people I took a photo of was my best friend Talia (3rd row). She would not cooperate with getting the picture taken so I told my friend Tim (featured in the 1st row) to try and make her laugh, which worked. She is my best friend so obviously she means a lot to me. We were in the upstairs of Macy's when these pictures were taken, and we saw this wall that had designs of clouds on it, so we decided to take it there. It was challenging to get my friends to cooperate with the pictures, and was also hard to catch my cat being still and sitting for a second. My mom didn't know which expressions to make which was also a challenge.
