Since a few years I struggle with panic disorder and anxiety in general. It has gotten a lot better thanks to therapy and accepting it, but sometimes it still gets me and puts me in a hole for a few days or weeks. This piece is about the physical sensation I feel when a panic attack is coming, or I feel anxious in general: a tightness like I can‘t breathe, something creeping up on me, feeling isolated and alone, being overwhelmed. When I have these anxious phases I also often feel ugly, and not attractive. That‘s why I chose that title.

The rays behind him makes it seem like a halo, as if he’s holy. And to be holy means to be seen, to be exposed and to have the world expect so much of you. Now imagine, you’re in this place and yet, you’re you. Imperfect, anxious, just not the right one. How scary is that? To disappoint the whole world and yourself. And with these hands wrapped around you there’s no where to go. To be seen and to make mistakes, consciously or even worst, unconsciously is so frightening. Not trusting yourself becomes your instinct, silencing yourself becomes the best choice you can make. Because you are sure to mess up, because it’s you. Anxiety is dismorphia of the body, mind and soul. And yet, it only takes one person, who can hold space for you to make it all go away.
Face of Mae :) Art allows me to get in touch with my authentic spirit and set it free. Can’t wait to get in touch with yours.☺︎
