Description

Andy painted Zara during lockdown. She described herself as a stay-at-home Mum, whose anxiety had started years before lockdown. As their dialogue progressed, she found that her understanding of her own feelings and thoughts changed. Her painting showed her as both puppet and puppeteer, a composition that evolved directly out of our conversations about her anxiety. “it revealed more and more to me about my own situation. I realised that the anxiety wasn't bigger than me…it (the painting) has honestly changed everything about my life at this time - beauty still lies within darkness”.
