I created a collage on cardboard based on the story of Henry Flores and Gwendolyn Diaz. Gwen started a new job and caught the eye of Henry. He'd pass by her office and be left in utter amazement at her beauty, thus resulting in him stumbling into the wall. Eventually, Gwen asked him for a cigarette, Henry then brought three ash trays to her office and asked her to pick one, and from there they began to talk. Henry took her dancing and asked for a kiss at the end, Gwen replied back in a flirty manner and that started their passionate relationship. I found this story interesting because of the way it started off with music, it caught my attention. I also found their story to be very cute.
The cigarette symbolizes the reason why they first talked. The ash tray represents Henry's idea to break the ice between him and Gwen. And the dancing image symbolizes Henry and Gwen's first date. Although I was not supposed to put text in this project, I felt it would help the viewer understand my collage better.
