Your personal statement is a very moving piece of writing. Comment on your footnote: One of the great things about art is the wide range of responses it can elicit. Your two very different reactions are perhaps a case in point. I suppose everyone looks and understands through the lens of own unique experiences & lives, their education and even the label accompanying the piece telling you to some extent what to think. That’s one reason I always spend some time looking at something before reading information provided about it. In your case your were struck by the piece enough to go off and keep thinking about it. More on this when I see you
