For this project, I wish to go to an axe throwing establishment and have people come up to where we are to talk about the election, or about their mental health, or about how the election results are contributing to the status of their mental health. I want people to use their anger and their fear on the target. Let out their screams, or their thoughts. I want people to get mad and use that anger to bring up a discussion. I am very intrigued by the idea of taking something and destroying it. I once destroyed a piece of wood when I went axe throwing and I am curious as to whether or not the anger of others will be enough to break the board and metaphorically break the wall and barrier of political discussions. Some people may not feel like they are free to speak on what they wish to speak on when it comes to politics in fear of sparking outrage and debate, This intervention would be welcoming and inviting to rage and debate, and I wish for it to be something that is either eye opening or at the very least allowing others to potentially understand the points of view that the people in their lives are trying to make.
