The qualities of the materials I found were the main component of the piece’s relation to my childhood. I luckily found materials that were all sensuous, with many moving parts and unique feelings, that reminded me of the toys I had as a kid. The feeling I received from the objects that reminded me of my childhood toys is what drove me to make a toy myself. The actual making of the toy also reminded me of my childhood, as the feeling of small human figures reminded me of my many Barbies, G.I. Joes, Bratz, and more, because as a child I enjoyed creating things myself. The simplicity of the materials and the lack of dedication to visual aesthetics was another connection to my childish ways. I was happy that both the final, physical piece and the process of making it reminded me of my childhood memories and also connected to my classmates and their memories.
