Artwork Description

Silencing a Schizophrenic Mind / 20
Concentration without thinking became needed. A task created for the mind to put a hold on an alternative reality that was being constructed without permission.
Each line has a start, a middle and an end, mapped out in beautiful simplicity.
Demanding attention, but with the comfort of auto pilot.
A chance for internal commuter’s to retreat.

This series commenced as a form of art therapy to appease the artists Schizophrenia.
The pieces serve as various tools against psychosis and schizophrenic tendencies for the artist, whether it be a late night visual lullaby, a pre workout for a calming social interaction or an untangling of thoughts.
Each piece has served an important role.

Artist Bio

I navigate my thoughts through my art, whether it be an outlet for internal energy or art therapy pieces to calm my mind and my Schizophrenia.
The process of creating internal thoughts into a visual identity is a rabbit hole that can stretch for an eternity.
The moments shared between the artist and their works, is a fascinating bond.. Every piece has my emotions attached to it, making it more than just canvas and paint.
I often compose words after staring at a finished piece, not to lead the viewer as such, but to insight their own thought process.
My art may vary as much as my mind will, allowing myself freedom and an authenticity in the art I create.
Letting go of fear and opening yourself up to vulnerability is a necessity when creating art.
