About this artwork
This self-portrait, marked by a bloodied eye, confronts the lived realities of a queer female artist navigating a misogynistic and often hostile world. Through chaotic color and fragmented figures—including visions of ancient goddesses and mythic forms emerging within her mind—the composition mirrors an interior landscape shaped by turmoil, revelation, and resilience. These presences evoke a lineage of feminine power, suggesting that while the outside…
world inflicts harm, an inner inheritance of strength endures—drawn from histories of goddesses and collective memory.
The work pulses with both urgency and introspection, drawing viewers into the shifting depths of human consciousness. It stands as an invitation to look beyond the surface—to engage with what is unseen, to feel what is often unspoken—and to encounter the layered, invisible stories that connect us all.
