In present day, I struggle a lot with my mental health. I lived in a very traumatic situation for a couple years, and it still effects my body even though I've come to terms with the past mentally. To combat this, I pay attention to the little things in life to help me cope: a cute flower growing out from the side of the sidewalk, a comedically large leaf that I could put on my head, or perhaps catching a glimpse of two lovebirds sharing a smile as I walk by. Things like this are enough for me to find peace even though my body faces turmoil.
I wanted to create a figure that would, to me, represent the height of happiness and tranquility. Creating sculptures like these help me imagine a world where I can thrive just as this sculpture here is.
