About the work

This painting is based on the experience of pain. Releasing pain starts by the focus on my "inner-verse", the world inside myself where my experiences, emotions, beliefs, thought patterns and realities are born.

Physical and emotional pain is the way our bodies and hearts tell us, "Pay attention to me, see me, understand me, witness me and get curious about why I showed up here, and then I can be on my way."

Creativity is the best therapy for pain. It functions like a diplomat on behalf of the subjectivity and authenticity of pain, creating bridges through imagination to the world of relativity and re-connection to joy. It is a safe haven for volatility and rage because it provides an outlet for the parts of us needing safe self-expression where there are no devastating repercussions for what has been shared.

For me, the disconnection that can occur between what I feel and how I share it, is repaired when I allow creativity to be my intention of growth and expression. Let yourself imagine that you could transmute your troubles into a picture or a painting.
What would that look like?
