365 Project Day 224


Here is my latest art piece. It depicts my most painful moments. My heart has been ripped from my chest and is bound and far away. The text reads..."my heart"..."emptiness"...and "alone". There are symbols for time waiting, gears of life slowly grinding along despite the pain...the black empty hole where my heart should be. She is holding scissors and a paper heart with scraps of other hearts at her feet as she tries desperately to fill the hole, even temporarily, where her heart should be. The idea came to me in a time of deepest depression and it was a very healing process to create it.
