In this piece, there are 6 girls standing against a brick wall (Left to right: Darrian, Briana, Christina, Kayla, Marisa, and Eve). There are 5 pregnant girls and 1 girl who is not pregnant. I used repetition and balance, creating the "normality" in which aberrance deviates from.
I believe this piece is 90% successful because it represents aberrance in society in which teenage pregnancy is drastically increasing, having people think if it as a "normality." This is why I have the teenager that is not pregnant, different from everyone else, making her a nonconformist to society. The 10% that is not successful is the way I went about making them pregnant. Their tummies are not exactly "smooth" and very much fake looking.
