Etchings, 50 x 60 cm

This series of works explores emotional trauma and its influence on self-perception. The fragmented limbs represent physical losses experienced on an emotional level—trust, confidence, and a sense of wholeness.

Trauma, endured at different stages of life, leaves behind a feeling of “absence,” as if parts of the body were physically lost. However, this series is not just about pain—it also highlights the human ability to adapt and find new ways of existing despite these losses.

The series reflects the idea that even with emotional losses, we can continue to move forward. Losing something significant doesn’t mean losing the ability to live, create, or grow. Each fragment in the work represents strength, resilience, and the pursuit of wholeness within incompleteness. It’s a story of acceptance, recovery, and the will to keep living.
