Intended Message

My intended message for the sculpture is for it to be crazy looking and sad. For my sculpture, i want to have a man hanging from the gallows and have the man be able to swing around. By doing this, i feel i'm creating a funny aspect to the sculpture because the man is moveable and will be in a variety of different colours etc. I chose this idea after seeing the lyrics i wanted to use. My lyrics tell the story of man about to get hanged, so to try to be let free, he gives the hangman money, gold and even his relatives. But in the end, he still gets hanged. The songs lyrics are kind of playful even though its about death and being hung. This is reflected in the music aswell as the music starts slowly but builds up until a final crescendo. I want to have something like that in my sculpture, a crescendo in colour. Like have the bottom of the mans legs be quite plain but as we move up the body, there is more life in him.
