A Deception , 2023
Charcoal

Behind the smiles and laughs lie a girl who struggles to comprehend the meaning of joy.
This art piece represents my inner emotions during one of my lowest moments. I have always struggled with friends and my emotions. I am a person who gets very easily overwhelmed and worried about things in life. It can be as small as assignments.
However, in an attempt to conceal my worry and all my negative emotion, I put up an act - a deception. Being joyful on the outside but a whole mess inside. I am now much better but I believe I will always encounter many moments like this.

This piece will always capture the girl who lies beneath the mask.
