During my undergraduate career here at Ohio State, I created a similar piece of art where negative words were inside of the figure and positive words outside, highlighting struggles with mental health and the isolation that can bring. Fast forward almost 10 years later, I was inspired to create this piece again but updated to show the hope, resilience, and mindfulness I've been cultivating in my own journey and hoping to inspire others that they can do the same.
