I had a mentor call this my "secret work" which started as sketchbook diary pieces and stepped into my focus in a backwards way that surprised me. In open studios, I was able to hear people's reactions and really understand why I was making the work as I made it. It didn't always make sense, but it really touched certain people in a surprising way. They had experienced the same darkness and shadow of living under a narcissist and knew what it meant to not know where you belong. The countries where we came from have always been unstable and running from something was a constant undercurrent in my life.
On the other hand, many people saw the work and saw joy and comfort. Which I also love. It shows that the work is not mired in the negative, but can be perceived as a positive as well. This is also stemming from the need to not show too much or to please.
