Pain is an ever-changing landscape—unpredictable yet deeply rooted in experience.
A towering tree stands strong, its vast roots symbolizing the unwavering care and love of my support system which nourishes and strengthens me. Vibrant leaves represent the bi-annual surgeries and medication that help me function daily. A mountain range serves as a reminder of perspective—journaling helps me navigate pain’s peaks and valleys—while a rising cloud embodies faith and music, lifting my spirit. The golden sun on the horizon radiates hope with every step I take. Blooming flowers inspire me to embrace creativity, enjoy the little things, and celebrate colour to boost my mood, while the ocean’s ebb and flow mirror pain’s unpredictability. These mindful elements sustain me, transforming each pain-full day into moments of strength, growth, and hope.
Acrylic paint, alcohol ink, paper, and gold leaf on 10”x10” wood panel. Exhibited at The University of Toronto’s Pain Canada Exhibition “What I Do For Pain.”
