Healing From Trauma: The Fluidity—Artwork Inspired By The Human Condition


Experience Brushstrokes Of Resilience



Experience the delicate choreography of the nervous system, where vulnerability and resilience dance on a tightrope over a pit of whispers keeping restful sleep at bay—the fluidity of it all: healing from trauma.

You are at your strongest at the deepest depths, someone who never needs to be rescued—a baptismal norm—and for that, I am willing to wade in the tidepools of love until you are ready to swim again; let me be the ocean you can turn your back on.



The artistic expression depicts a surreal scene with a graceful ballerina in fluidity, creating a dreamlike and energetic atmosphere frozen in a timeless, fantastical space.


Prose Inspiration: "You are at your strongest at the deepest depths, someone who never needs to be rescued—a baptismal norm—and for that, I am willing to wade in the tidepools of love until you are ready to swim again; let me be the ocean you can turn your back on."




 
I'm fine. Totally fine... I'm fine; Ok?!—The hidden-in-plain-sight unraveling triggered by a rapid succession of catastrophic-cluster-fucks of traumatic events—depicting a depleted body with a shattered soul strangulated by repressed Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) awakening, triggered my "Jenga-like" structure of existence to fall.





The artistic expression depicts a haunting portrayal of inner turmoil trapped in the vulnerability of the masks we wear to conceal our mental health.


Prose Inspiration: "As a matter of survival, my catatonic-agoraphobic state of existence hiding in plain sight controlling of my mind, body, and soul by a knarily-evil PTSI troll screaming "how to commit suicide" directives while puppetering my reply "I'm fine. Totally fine. Fine. I'm fine!"






 
Chattering teeth, knees pressed to chest, in a cocoon-like respite-hibernation—the struggle to breathe brought inability for a full night's rest—no need for alarm come morning break when tear-soaked nightmares are a new state of reality—for in the darkness of night, under warm-crisp sheets becomes the trigger for grief to unleash.


The artistic expression depicts a peaceful expression, with knees pressed to chest, fighting against the sheath of grief.

Sorrow-eyed tears hollowed my cheeks; pooled in my throat; drowned any chance for me to rest—where the undertow of grief still lingers, like ceaseless waves.




The artistic expression depicts the relentless nature of sorrow, likened to relentless waves pulling us under while trying to escape overwhelming emotion.
