Abstract/Artist Statement
Some kids mature faster than others, but when most of the kids grow up faster than others, it can be lonely for those who have yet to mature, and are left behind. In middle school, I knew a person who had, what I thought was a hilarious laugh, but some of my other friends didn’t find it as funny, and found him annoying instead. Over time, though, he ended up changing, and ended up being less of a clown and more mature. At the time I had no idea what maturing really meant, so I thought up many wild theories of how he could have changed. I feel that the concept of maturity is foreign to younger kids, not because they don’t know what it means, but rather because they don’t grasp what it is because they haven’t experienced it themselves yet. Nevertheless, maturing and growing up is very important, and part of being a person.
