Discovery is an attempt to visualize my process of handling loss. Intended to be digested from left most, to right most, to middle. The left side represents my state of mind when first experiencing loss, the rushing thoughts, everything feels sharp, coarse and fast. and I simply cannot escape this state of mind. As I make my way up to the pinnacle of the orange circle I have a brief moment of clarity as my thoughts begin to thin and escape from my face. I snap back to blue, where I feel comfortable and safe, it’s nice in blue, I want to stay here, I want to stay hidden with the things I know are true. But inevitably I must leave, and as I lean into the white space my thoughts become clear and everything, all of sudden, feels very real and the distortion of thought begins to fade. Too real and too fast, so I begin to lean back into blue but something keeps me in this white space, and so I am left there with nothing but myself and open opportunity, waiting to start again.
