Being pricked by a large needle affects you both physically and mentally.
If you are around people a lot, it is normal to become infected.
The distorted figure, overwhelmed by symbols of death and disorder such as skulls and chaotic texts, represents the crushing weight of expectations and fears.
When I put my realised Virtual Worlds a diary on a line, unrealistic, real worlds (painted from memory), I realise that there is a recurring phenomenon: in pain, illness, mental health problems and caring for a family member. It is part of life. This necessitates the creation of recurring images, variations of photographs each time after the condition. It is astonishing to see how differently they are formed. I notice that my personal involvement in the pain of others plays an important role in my work. It is almost a must and captures emotion, because humans are vulnerable beings.
Every human being has to deal with health problems. Life is not always a bed of roses. That is very recognisable.
How does it inspire you? It is an addiction of the mind. It is a way to capture my life in images. It gives meaning to life. Many people do not know what to do with those feelings. It is my way of dealing with them, of turning them into a meaningful force.
