Take My Bones Away

In January of 2023, I broke both of my legs rock climbing. One was a simple fracture, while the other was a full compound break. My leg shattered into 6 pieces resulting in surgery, permanent hardware, and a full year of recovery ahead of me. I am a very active person with lots of goals and ambitions. Having to rest and rely on others was a challenge in letting go. During this time, there was some extra emotional drama woven into this and brought out the worst within me. I hit an all-time low in my mental health but with love, patience, empathy, and trust I came out of the other side a stronger and better person.

Eye-scension: To Glitter You Shall Return

In my high school art class, we were tasked with crafting a clay self-portrait house. Inspired by Surrealism, my creation was a whimsical blend of melting clocks, eyes, rainbows, and storm-filled clouds. The entrance was a giant, gaping mouth with a protruding tongue. Sadly, no photos were taken, and the piece didn't survive time.

During college, I developed a fascination with eyes, so much so that my professors encouraged me to explore other interests. Their guidance was invaluable. To celebrate my love for eyes, I embarked on a self-portrait project that showcased their intricate beauty.

Yoga and meditation, now essential parts of my life, also inspired this piece. I wanted to combine two of my favorite mediums: Prismacolor pencils and paint. The eyes, mouth, and tongue are Prismacolor on paper, seamlessly integrated into the painted canvas. I hope 'Eye-scension' ignites your imagination and invites you on a meditative journey.

Undogmatic

In the age of information overload and social media echo chambers, our natural human need for belonging and understanding feels increasingly distant. The lines between truth and fiction, fueled by conspiracy theories and the rise of AI, have created a complex and often confusing reality. To navigate this landscape, we must foster curiosity and critical thinking. Only by embracing these qualities can we escape the digital echo chamber and forge a path toward authenticity and genuine connection.
