Description
My brain doesn’t process thoughts and feelings very well. It struggles to separate things, gets them all tangled up and leaves me exhausted. Being able to express myself visually and creatively becomes a burning need. It brings a sense of relief from extreme emotions and physical sensations that I don’t always understand. It helps me to unravel the coil in my belly and the burning in my mind.
This body of work merges beauty and discomfort in equal measure. It combines multiple images from a near and distant past and the continuous blending and erosion of pixels until I arrive at the visual embodiment that is the confusion of my mind. It is a complete sensory overload that reflects my internal experience of living in this world as a neurodivergent person and is designed to have no beginning and no end. Nothing is linear.
