Final Image

© 2015 by Katherine Ramirez

A human being experiences many different types of needs throughout their life. From birth, one is automatically born with the need of water, shelter, and food. Till death, these are the only things that one may truly need. However, as an individual grows and experiences change in his/her persona, there are a variety of needs that begin to form. For example, money, the latest iphone, or something as miraculous as a massage chair. 

    In this image, I depicted the need for a significant other. As we mature in life, we tend to seek someone that, sometimes, understands us better than we understand ourselves. They allow us to feel complete, and learn to love so deeply that we, metaphorically, become one. The love in this image is seen by the couples body language and facial expressions. Simply by looking at their faces, the viewer is able to recognize the love that these two withhold.
