Artist Statement:
Tina has obviously won. I wanted to incorporate popular women of that time and I wanted to go towards a jazz/soul type of groove. After digging around in the bargain bin of Recycled Records, I came upon these two beauties and was excited to see what will happen. Originally I wanted to use Sade's Diamond Life record, but after some playing around with assembling the records Tina ended up winning the duel for being the main portion of the record.
I cut up the record so the middle portion will have a diamond shape and the whatever the outer portion was will be the opposite record. After some playing around with the records, I found out that they're actually more sturdy than a CD. I wish that I could have painted the outer surface and add some glitter on the record to give it a full diamond effect, but I'm actually happy with how the record came out.
