Reflect (2019 - 2020)

One of the first things we do to start our day in the morning is look at ourselves in a mirror. We see ourselves and see the smallest detail of our bodies. Something we like and something we don’t like. When we first created the shape of an eye, I kept looking at it like I was looking at myself. “Are these the eyes that look at me?” I questioned.

A couple years ago, I grew into not liking to look at myself in the mirror. I felt uncomfortable to look at myself when my eyes were filled with tears. The feeling I got was I didn’t like seeing myself when I felt this way. I didn’t want to see that side of me but it’s happening. With this series, I’d like for you to interact with my art. Stop. Stare. Reflect.

Reflect on yourself and think about how did you get here today. Ignore the background noise around you. Ignore the people. Think about yourself. What are you thinking? What’s one thing you can’t stop thinking about? What’s in the back of your mind? Worries? Happiness? Angry? Depressed? Irritated? What do you want? How are you feeling? What can you do to make things better? Life can really suck, but there is a reason why we are here and it’s possible, we ourselves don’t know why still. I hope for the best for you and that this interaction helped you in some way.
