Tale as old as time

 Beauty of the Beast has been my favorite since I was a little girl, and I often ask myself how I view myself as Belle, the character from the fairy tale. Belle is the character who loves to read, whereas I don’t read that often and fall in love with the beast. I am not sure if I would love the beast if he would force me to live with him in the vast castle. However, this series taught me to understand the character of Belle and how she understands herself while living with him in the castle. The expression of Belle's character tells me that she has her own beliefs and doubts, yet she is willing to learn about the beast and the reasons behind his hideous mask. The candles remain the lifetime, and the important object is the part of the story. The veil of the pink flower gives the symbol of “marriage” that Belle and the beast have issues with their relationship and could be considered trapped or struck. The project I created allowed me to play the role of Belle and their characteristics to understand more about myself and hers. The objects that I bought and set up as the props to define the story and to back up the background of the story. They served the purpose of time, existence, and abstraction. They are not perfect, but they define the symbol of existence and time throughout our lifetime.
