Anxiety

Anxiety is a feeling that can feel inescapable. In this image I tried the experiment of painting without judgement or conclusion, using colour and expression of marks on a piece of paper, following the sensation of anxiety as i felt it in my body in that moment and noticed the way that sitting with it, seeing it, feeling it, expressing it it simply for what it is allowed the need for escape to diffuse and the elements of anxiety to be heard and returned to me. Creativity is a life tool I return to again and again to allow understanding and reflection of feelings that can otherwise build up and become overwhelming.
