“Overwhelmed”

Intaglio print, 2018, inspired by the expression of release.

I made this like two years ago and I come back to it from time to time and think, was it a coincidence, was I just interpreting an image I saw? I made it to fulfill an assignment at the time, so I questioned its validity but now I think I understand myself a little more. I wanted to convey how exhausted, and overwhelmed I felt. Little did I know, at the time, I was burning myself out with the rigorous course-load I took on in my last years of college. However, I don’t regret any of it and appreciate the lessons I learned and the opportunities to share this, the hardships, with the people I truly cared about. Bc truthfully, others are in our lives to help carry and more so, transform the pain/worry.

Pain is an echo that sounds throughout the world and it’s people.

Saturn

[Bridge]

All of the space we don't leave

Filled with the things we don't need

All that we built, all of the land that filled

Swallowed this planets like pills

[Chorus]

Baby you were up all night

Swipin' this plastic and driving too fast

Flying so probably buyin' in excess

But paper baggin' and toting no less
