A SL-ICE of Life
Artist Statement:
For my passion project I wanted to show something I do every morning, skating. During competitions, figure skaters usually skate a program that consist of jumps and spins. The higher the level of skating a particular skaters' in, the more music, spins and jumps are added into a program. If you watch skating on TV, skating can seem pretty easy because of how people present their skating skills and themselves, and it also seems like a 3-4 minute program wouldn't really be that hard. So my goal for this project was to show some of our struggles in skating. I've grouped up with a few of my friends who regularly skate in the mornings with me, and together we decided to film a few of jumps every single day for a week and this was the result.

Also I'm very sorry but I don't have the best camera quality.
