How do I represent myself in this model ?

Based on the previous project (self-portrait), the ideas are abstracted into a form fitted into this model :-

• Personal goals are highlighted.

• Represented in this model abstractly as a "journey" in achieving the goals.

• Strips of cardboard are used and they symbolizes the journey available/taken.

• Along the way, ups and downs came by. They are represented by the module attached to the strips.

• The strips are jointed which represents that the journey does not halt midway.
