This piece comes ready to hang with museum grade low reflection glass.
“No.2 Don’t look is about potential. I feel this painting every time I surface from depression and get the gulp of ‘you’re worth it’ and ‘you’re enough’. Feeling not good enough, or rejected at a level of family can make simply being yourself exceptionally difficult around anyone. While creating this I was feeling deeply about what I have personally endured. It looks at the reality that we actaully shine, and very brightly - that is, when you’re turned on by whatever turns you on. Perhaps I am a superb, vivid, alive creature with all the glowing potential in the world.
It’s a shame that feeling good, and showing it, also causes you to shrink again. It causes us to pull back, be embarressed, fit in. You become smaller again; a deliberate choice in size of this piece was made to show this in one way, and that your field of connection also grows smaller. You don’t fit into the version of yourself you’ve been portraying anymore.
This piece is a reminder that the glossy, vivacious version of each of us is in there - and as you do uncover yourself, you may also scream to be covered up. What if they judge? Well, they may not speak to you, or fuck you off entirely, actually.
That is a good thing, although finding a place within yourself where this is okay is so difficult. We’re mammals driven by connection, after all. But the others like you are out there, it’s just a tinier home. ”
