I’m proud to be part of this beautiful collaboration that helps raise awareness about mental health. Thank you Zawadi Parizek for all your hard work!!

For this collaboration I decided to make a piece focusing on bipolar disorder – mental illness that causes significant mood swings including periods of depression and periods of elevated mood. Bipolar disorder affects 1%-2% of the global population and compared to other health problems, treatment of bipolar is still badly affected by misunderstanding and stigma.

My piece represents two sides of that illness: mania – the bright side – happiness, energy… and depression – the dark side – sadness, worthlessness…
