Hidden Mental Health

This project enquired into the impact of lockdown and how this experience affected the artist's state of mind which was severely compromised although she outwardly concealed her emotions.

 

As a response to this, a series of images were created that captured the essence of how disturbed and distressed she felt at times during the lockdown. 

​

These images were composed by using fire to burn holes into the printed pictures which had varying levels of distortion but gave a true depiction of the artist's mental state at the time.
