What she says about "Two Sides of Me": "It took me a long time to gather the courage to speak up. It took me a long time to find my way out of the darkness and heal. I'm now ready to let the light inside of me resurface. I'm a survivor of childhood sexual abuse and domestic violence from an ex-husband. My work 'The Two Sides of Me' is inspired by my healing journey. I want to convey the duality of feelings that can affect trauma survivors. The constricting emotions of guilt, shame, and pain as well as those of hope, light, and healing. With this piece, I aim to help others to recognize and confront their own inner struggles and find the courage to seek the help they need."
