Description: The man wakes up to find those moment from his past stalking him again. “It’s your own fault.” “Why’d you have to say that!” “They don’t want to hear your excuses.” Yet even when they bring nothing but dread and anguish. He doesn’t fight back. In fact he welcomes the feeling with open arms.
Artist Statement: Allowing the paranoia and all negative scenarios to occupy my head always helped me with school. Yet I’ve noticed the dread starting to pile up leaving me more and more in the dark leaving nothing. It affected me daily until my brothers were the one to tell me to fix it now before entering adulthood which stuck in my mind when developing my pisces. What if I never change these issues? what would happen to those who didn’t have the resources to address said issues? How would it affect their goals and aspirations? But most importantly, Should it be in a story format? Or stick to single frames?
