My collection, titled "Home" decor, in decay delves into themes of alienation and self-revelation. I've often felt dissociated in my life, a sensation shared by many who conceal their true selves behind masks. Through my work, I aim to uncover the world's scars, vulnerabilities, and chaos hidden beneath appearances, questioning the need for pretense and the pursuit of perfection. I seek a path to genuine vitality, a "home" not in a physical place, but a psychological realm - a gateway to which could be found in objects like childhood mementos or even death itself. I want my audience to share in this safe space, free from judgment or ridicule, as we express ourselves openly.
