This is a piece I painted a couple years ago (called "Many Faces") maybe when I first started my journey into trauma recovery and right before I came into ACA. I was trying to express dissociation and to me how it felt to be so fractured inside at the time and also just how much rage all of these parts of me had. I used inspiration from other artists to come up with this idea. The painting is solely mine and I am very proud of it. I think it is my best piece I have done so far.
