“What Others Can’t See” offers a glimpse behind the external façade to highlight hidden internal conflict. The mess of skulls in the top left reflect the related issue of overthinking and being subsequently distracted, while the imagery of water and waves in the bottom left skull suggest these struggles through their symbolic relations to chaos and hidden emotions. Collage was utilized as the main medium to create physical layers that mirror the idea of complex and contrasting thoughts hidden behind the surface.
What Others Can’t See is a part of a larger project, to be displayed as an artist book, centered around themes of self-identity and acceptance.
