Today I dedicate this statement to my mouse Mikey who passed yesterday. He was one of my best friends, lived up to almost a year and was my baby goblin boy. Me and his brother Ralph will remember him dearly.
What inspired me to take these photos was the want to give some insight into how my mind and mental health can be. From being bright and imaginative to uneasy and disgusting even. All in a quick flash. How I went about conveying this was by using color and subject matter. The color represents how beautiful, colorful, and bright my imagination can be. With the subject matter, I wanted it to represent my mental health and how uneasy it can be living with it from day to day, that being me in the midst of an emotional state distracting myself of my own thoughts, as well as relating my mind to a box in an abandoned building. Burnt, rusted, and covered in residue. And with these components at play, I hope it can convey who I am as an artist and person.
