Senior Mackenzie Service’s first three pieces featured a series of matchboxes. The gradual emptiness of the boxes is meant to portray her concentration on losing motivation. The first box is almost full, the second is halfway full with burnt matches surrounding it and the third is completely empty with only burnt matches. “The first matchbox I made was intentionally not completely full, even though when you compare it to the second and third matchboxes, it looks full,” Service said. “As humans we always crave more and we continuously desire this feeling of completeness and wholeness. Once we reach it, we keep going and its like this downward spiral, so thats why those ones are not all the way full. The empty box is to represent being drained or completely burnt out.”
