Talking to Myself:
Through this captivating artwork, I, as the artist, depict the profound inner dialogue between the inner child and the mature adult self. The image portrays the complexity of this internal conversation, as the inner child embodies traits of insecurity, rebellion, torn emotions, hurt, and love, while the elder adult self embodies rationality, logic, care, wisdom, and intelligence. This visual narrative invites viewers to contemplate the dynamic interplay between these contrasting aspects of the human psyche. The inner child represents vulnerability, raw emotions, and the lingering impact of past experiences, while the elder adult self embodies the guidance and wisdom gained through life's lessons. This artwork encourages introspection, highlighting the intricate relationship between our inner selves and the ongoing dialogue that shapes our perception of the world.
The world you thought you lived in:
Through this poignant artwork, I, as the artist, depict the protagonist immersed in a world brimming with warmth, love, expansive space, safety, and security. However, this idyllic existence is abruptly interrupted as the protagonist is confronted with the harshness of reality. The image captures the moment before the protagonist's perception of the world shifts, perhaps due to a sudden realization or an unforeseen event. This artwork invites viewers to contemplate the fragile nature of our constructed realities and the inevitable encounters with life's challenges. It serves as a visual exploration of the vulnerability and resilience inherent in the human experience, highlighting the universal journey of navigating the collision between our idealized perceptions and the truth of the world around us.
Hello darkness, my old friend:
Through this powerful artwork, I, as the artist, portray a small child encountering the menacing monster of darkness, symbolizing the weight of dark thoughts induced by depression. Remarkably, the child does not experience fear or perceive any threat from the presence of the monster. This depiction signifies the resilience and familiarity that the child has developed towards these haunting thoughts through their previous struggles. Having faced these dark thoughts repeatedly, the child has grown accustomed to their presence, enabling them to confront the monster with unwavering strength and courage. This artwork invites viewers to reflect on the profound journey of navigating mental hardships, showcasing the capacity for resilience and the ability to find solace even in the face of internal darkness.
