Detached

This artwork was created to represent the face I put on for the world vs. what is really going on inside of me. The artwork just poured out of me as I put my emotion into it. It shows the two components of the figure’s face attached by tangled strings. The two parts are connected but also detached. There is an outward expression of guilt and shame in the scream portion of the face, and hidden emotion in the upper portion of the face. One part represents the façade I put on for the world and the other shows what is actually going on inside of me.

Creativity means expressing yourself in any way, shape or form that feels authentic and inspires others to find the same in themselves.
