Classism
Made these interactive 3 piece poster in 2018 in college. During that time, it was a very controversial piece in Graduation Art Gallery event. Now a days, this poster would make sense to others.

The concept is showing the perspective of each angle of the poor, middle and rich class. That everyone has mutual feelings of facing situations. However, the boundaries that have a powerful hold called stereotype loses the humility of seeing past there perspective statuses. My main goal is to get individuals to interact with it, think, ask questions. There is no right or wrong answer.
Blue represents the middle class. Middle class is suffocating and slowly disappearing.
White represents the poor. Poor class is wondering aimlessly finding purpose and so they stay within a grid in rotation to find it once again.
Red represents the rich. Rich are constantly on the edge of losing what they work hard for. They lose their sense of compassion addicted to the chase of gain which makes their mindset of things upside down which is not right.
Anxiety
Simply how it starts for the past 30 seconds.

Last Real Indians
Inspired by non profit organization. The poster represent the Native Americans resilience of fighting for their rights, freedom, and their lands. It shows how many of their ancestors and bloodline continue the fight with many scarifies. The United States is their imprint of their way of life and culture.

Four Divide
The great divide will collide in time. Continuous 4 layers do not last forever. Hate only exist as a backwards reflection sense of fear. Fear is considered the unknown as humans we always crave in knowing the answers to our senses (feel, smell, touch & hear).

Background is a sense of order in repetition but not quite align and perfect in spacing. Gray symbolize gray area. There is a sense of acknowledgement of the issue yet no one wants to address how to improve.

EMDR THERAPY: Steps of Releasing Grief
Relaxing every part of your body. Taking deep breathes. What colors do you see? What is disturbing every inch and part of your body? Which color or shape is more loud? Let's focus and put it in a box. Has it disappeared? How are you feeling? Scan your body if there is more left? None? Now what color are you seeing?

I have C-PTSD. This is an exercise when the trauma becomes so loud that my body becomes numb and my emotions are overwhelming that I am silent or emotionally outward that I repeat because I can't solve it within myself. This exercise to help me stay functional and put these tense feelings in a box in a way having sense of control over my mind and body again. With this exercise you have to connect with your inner child and at the same time your present self which is an adult. Since I can never visually imagine like safe space color helps. Getting into EMDR Therapy you have to have acceptance you will not be healed. However, coexist with the trauma you experience not allowing it to define you or control.
DARK EMPATH
Walk the world alone listening but never been heard. Just moving and flourishing in silence creating safe place in your head creatively. (Character inspo mixture of Mel/Jinx from Arcane)
Cardinal of New Beginnings
Capricorn, misunderstood sign. Has a pressure to hold the standards of excellence of fresh new starts but carries deep down the weight of last years pain, grief, and losses. Has a face of strength with high standards but reality a softy, loyal to their inner circle and lastly, a goofball. They run on independence but deep down searching for connection through the cold breeze of reality. They disassociate through society because it seems everyone has a lot to say of who they are but not ask the questions understanding in what they are all about through top to bottom. Emotionless, however, fierce and driven no matter what stage in their life they face- tunnel focus on their goals as well as seeking answers to their desires.
TWO FACED MONOPOLY
Around and around we go with two- faced politicians wrapped in greed. Monopoly have you played? Based one life. Everyone working hard being upmost great Citizen trying to hit the American Dream. Who makes the rules? Who makes the directions in getting there? Only 1% not all could make it into the finish line can't you tell? How do you get on top? From others demise. Even when you reach the finish line is it real? A temporary happiness because the real truth is the two faced politicians would never allow you to take their position on top. So, around and around you go thinking you made it but eventually they can take it in a instant. Capitalism at its finest.
