"Fragments of the Mind"
I am exploring themes of mental illnesses through my latest series titled 'Fragment of the Mind.'
This porcelain sculpture series consists of faces that represent different mental illnesses. Each sculpture is a visual exploration of the internal struggle of the mind, capturing the intricate emotions and experiences associated with various mental health conditions.
I was relying on my internal feeling of such mental diagnoses as:
- Narcissism
- PTSD
- Depression
- Addiction
- Anxiety
- Paranoia
- Split personality disorder.
The central element features a smaller baby face surrounded by black flowers, symbolizing the lost inner child, whose fragility has been affected by mental illness.
By showcasing the diversity of mental illnesses through art, "Fragments of the Mind" aims to foster understanding and empathy towards those who struggle with mental health challenges.
Created from the mold of my own face, this artwork explores the personal and vulnerable and sensitive nature of the human mind.
The delicate porcelain material adds to the metaphor of the fragility of the mind, making this artwork a poignant and thought-provoking
