My human-heart shaped book is an exploration of the emotions
and traumas I went through growing up, ranging from my childhood to my
highschool years. It starts off innocent—photos of myself in child-like
princess dresses playing with my childhood favorite food, potatoes. Then the
book slowly gets darker, to represent my diagnosis with extreme anxiety and
depression. During this time, I was put onto medication that made me very sick
and confused, so growing up became very frightening. The book slowly becomes
more positive, with hints to my growing love for fashion and art. The motifs of
bows, candy, lace, and rhinestones represent the hobbies that helped me through
my depression and anxiety and become the person I am today.
