Pretence
Description:
I have named my piece ‘Pretence’
I think that this was funneled from my aging - I have looked at my winning piece in the YASM for the RA (called ‘Early in the morning’) and cried.
I have taken this piece to show you because it was during lockdown that I made this. I was 11 then, and it just felt odd; I had just moved to Bexely and I had found that it was so lonely. Everyone was gone from everywhere - ‘something like the world when the deluge had gone by’ as stated in Jane Eyre. I felt sad and it was odd for it to be so desolate.
Now, over the course of events of 2024 - it had never felt better to be alone. My experience - it broke me and rebuilt me from the ashes of what I was. I see my piece as one person - one sad broken person, who has put on the heavy mask of ‘I’m okay’. It just shows that sometimes, the person you see standing in front of you is not always the person you think they are. Looks can be deceiving - a beautiful rose; lovely flower, but sharp thorns.
When a bit of you is gone, and sometimes you will never get it back. Like a glass - shattered. You can never make it the perfect whole glass like it was before.
It is hard to be perfect - it’s hard to balance everything at once and pretend that you are always fine and always happy.
My art - Some may see it as two people, some as one. Art can be deceptive. Take it as you wish.
