Determination No one can hinder, circumvent or control the fire of the determined soul. Visual representation of findings following deep self exploration as part oft fmp. #determimation #selfexploration #reflection #mimdfulness #findingourselves #fireinourbelly #selflove #selfcare #awareness #clarity #art #conceptualart #arrist #installation #enpowerment #femanist #womeninart #womenwhocreate #whenwordsarntenough #thelightwiththedarkness #thelight #awakening @foundatsheffcol https://www.instagram.com/p/CNqHSwOh7vk/?igshid=iu7ywm0dseon

My updated response to self exploration through selfies. As part of my fmp. A blueprint of self inside a mirrored box to represent the feelings within when looking at oneself from the outside in. . Titled: OUT OF DATE. I see I am ageing. I feel stale, past my best before date, not good enough and have a overwhelming urge to fit in. My mind much younger than my visual self. Yet, I recognise these feelings are my own bias and judgement. Following a lifetime of pressure from societal beauty ideals and are not the inherent truth. As age does not define our worth. #fuckyoubeautystandards #agedoesnit define us #youareenough #photography #process #art #conceptualart #selfexploration #lookinginside #selfanalysis #criticalthinking #love #beyou #artfoundstion #ageism #selfworth #youareworthy #woman #womaninart #femanism #sterotypes #marganalised #womenwhocreateart @foundatsheffcol https://www.instagram.com/p/CNdbyw_gMUT/?igshid=np8u771nispo

A sneak peek of my process so far. To be continued.My visual response to exploring selfies as a method of self-exploration as part of fmp . Titled: OUT OF DATE. I see I am ageing. I feel past my best before date, not good enough and have a overwhelming urge to fit in. My mind is much younger than my visual self. Yet, I recognise these feelings are my own bias and judgement. Following a lifetime of pressure from societal beauty ideals and are not the inherent truth.

Relief print using environment board from today's class. Inspired by my theme of self exploration,for my fmp. I shall title this: Finding the roots of tyself. Very often in life we lost light of ourselves. We forget who we are, what we love, as we live a life of conforming to others narratives. The roots of our being come under fire. They get scorched. It's important to recognise this so we are able to step back, put out the fire and water those roots so they can once again flourish @foundatsheffcol #reliefprint #art#enviromentboard #representationalart #artfoundation #fmp #conceptualart #roots #trees #selfexploration #empowerment #positivity #powerofthemind https://www.instagram.com/p/CMkUnaegKca/?igshid=jlf0ronqhw6y

Through my lens: my intent to share feelings of my experience of domestic abuse. The unseen. As i deny the inherent truth and pretend I am fine. I know better then to share my internal pain . I have been warned and felt the consequences, should i share my real living hell. I am fully aware of the danger that imposes, not just to myself, but to my family and loved ones too. Yet here the mirror reveals the imprisonment of my internal torment of that abuse #domesticviolence #domesticabuse #emotionalabuse #domesticviolenceawareness #abuse #narcissisticabuse #narcissist #toxicrelationships #survivor #gaslighting #ptsd #selflove #narcissisticabusesurvivor #love #mentalhealth #sociopath #domesticviolencesurvivor #healing #women #womenempowerment #narcissism #trauma #abusiverelationship #psychologicalabuse #toxicpeople #womenmakingart #art #drawing https://www.instagram.com/p/CL5UzqohoRo/?igshid=1cch9b2q9m3ml
