ARTIST STATEMENT: “Keeping it Together” is a passion project I decided to start after the loss of my family's childhood dog. For years she was my emotional center, I was always seen as the strong one in my family so when I had no one to go to about problems I was facing she was the one being on earth who gave me comfort. After her loss I was left trying to find a way to deal with my pent up emotional issues after years of not going to anyone else about them. I wanted to use this experience to educate and show others the dangers about keeping everything bottled up and not finding a healthy way to express your emotions, even the hard ones that can be difficult to share.
