This piece was one of the various artworks that connected to a central theme of mental health issues. Through the abstraction of the colors and lines in the piece, I aimed to depict the idea of insomnia and the heavy emotions that come with it. Often, we regard insomnia to simply be the lack of ability to sleep. However, the colorful and blurry thoughts that rummage in your head could seriously harm you. Through the usage of clocks and tired eyes, these elements resemble the never-ending time depicting the sense of uncertainty and uneasiness that some people face.
