Abstract
Medium: Graphite, alcohol marker, and micron pen on paper
Dimensions: 9”x12” and 8.5"x11"
Year: 2022
"Disturb the Comfortable" is a series based on the struggles of women and those who are a part of the LGBTQIA+. These pieces are all on basic drawing paper, using a variety of drawing material. The scribbled faces of these figures represent the utter chaos that trauma leaves in its wake. These pieces focus on struggling with your own identity, as well as redefining yourself after a traumatic experience. My goal with this composition is meant to bring awareness to the horrors that women and the people of the LGBTQIA_ face on a daily basis.
