Artist Description of Work:
Narcissist captures the emotional turbulence of navigating a relationship with someone exhibiting narcissistic personality disorder while balancing the demands of motherhood. The vibrant and chaotic colors in the underlayer symbolize the deep emotional pain and inner turmoil, while the overlay of silver letters and numbers represents the structured yet overwhelming responsibilities of raising young children. This juxtaposition reflects the challenge of managing two seemingly contrasting yet interconnected experiences.
