Category: Collection 9 – The Wavering Heart
– The Wavering Heart –
The emotions of anger and fear
can be a kind of fuel for us,
a motivation to see
the most negative aspects
of ourselves in a positive light.
This collection explores the contradictions and connections of our emotional experiences, as well as concepts of shifting loyalties between those we encounter within these emotional journeys. Our human emotions are defined by those fine lines which we draw within ourselves. They lead us along the fragile boundaries of our emotional states; we vacillate between love and pain, hope and fear, until the divisions of these states become nothing more than a momentary abstract.
