“Alone” - “A Trip Through Thought” Series

“Alone” is about what OCD can do next. Even after the compulsion(s) is done and the temporary relief comes OCD will still argue with me. It can cause me to get in my own head so much that I am so focused on what is in my head I cannot see what is around me. I have been in situations where I could be in a room with people and still feel isolated.

“A Trip Through Thought” depicts a look into the inner workings of anxiety and OCD, based on my own experiences. The pieces tell a sequential story of an irrational thought and how OCD manipulates it and the difficulties of that process. Various parts of the experience are visually explored through surreal worlds.
