Exorcism of Doubt, 56cm x 56cm
Acrylic on canvas paper*, 56cm tall by 56cm wide.
A 2019 self portrait of my soul releasing fear, anxiety and self doubt, painted during a terrifying panic attack in the aftermath of a violent encounter, in effort to self-soothe.
Though incidental, this painting marks a major shift in my artwork. As a self taught painter, up to this point my work was mostly very straightforward; still lifes, nudes, portraits, landscapes. Painted out of necessity, through surrendering my body as an instrument to Spirit, I was able to alchemize the pain inside of me into something tangible and powerful outside of me.
What follows this piece is an entire series of artworks depicting my soul’s journey, which coincides (mutually arises) with my human experience. Much more influential is the shift in my own mental health that followed the creation of this piece. I began to view my suffering as means to fuel my creativity, healing, and ultimately, joy.
Additionally, I found my voice. As Alan Watts said, “Words are a very clumsy way of talking.”
