The Self, Destruction, The Intrusion, The Tears, The Garden

"This work promotes Mental Health Awareness and wellness, from sharing my experience of emotional detachment and depression. The work is 4 different canvases that complete a self portrait, showing my story as I grow into an adult and allowing myself to reflect. The work displays my experience growing in a toxic masculine environment as a child, which forced me to conceal as much as I could and my only emotional release was my art."
