Artist Statement:
Grappling with a lifelong battle with complex post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, anxiety, and eating disorders, I exhibited crippling poverty most of my life. For years I felt like nothing but an outcast as well as isolated, lonely, and despondent. I found meaning and purpose again through my writing and art. Finding hope in each inventive art and writing piece has been my sole motivation in getting up in the morning. My vision is to help raise mental health awareness by creating provocative thought pieces of writing and art as seen through the artistic lens of a neurodivergent woman. Through authenticity, kindness, and compassion, we can make a difference and finally end the stigma behind mental health struggles.
