My object that I will be creating is a brain that brings awareness to both concussions and how concussions affect both individuals and a team overall. My brain will be made out of the following materials: Plato, medical tape, Clothes, player pictures, and electrical tape.
Plato: I chose Plato because it is soft and it represents a human brain in the fact that they are both tender and very sensitive. It represents an average brain well in many aspects.
Player Pictures: I chose to put actual players pictures that got concussions and who haven't. It will give you a real perspective on how common concussions are and it shows you actual people who have gotten them.
Medical Tape: Medical tape because we are always around it and put it on all the time, weather it is for practice or games it is always around us.
Green Clothes: Green clothes for the S because we were wearing our green jersey when our major concussion of the season occurred.
Black electrical Tape: Black tape because it shows hoe dark certain parts of our season were and it shows you how all these negative things affected our season.

Based off of the image and description I think your message is that concussions caused by sports accidents are severely tragic and you want to bring awareness to the fact that accidents like these need to be prevented. I believe the intended audience would be sports players, fans, coaches, sports administrators and affiliates. I think an object like this would put in perspective to the sports community what a huge issue this is. I can interpret the relationship between the plato and brain as a symbol of how sensitive and easily damaged it is, and the medical tape makes an obvious connection with brain damage. I think the use of real images of players evokes a sense of compassion.
