Topic: Trauma

When thinking of trauma I thought about the death of my mother, of which I still feel the hurt of her passing.

Centre is me, the person I am today with my hands resting below my chest, as this is something I hold close to my heart.

Seen also as a shadow or another person standing there, represents the presence of my Old People/Ancestors, while the radiating pink and red tones depict a guided healing.

The outer surrounding area shows the past and ongoing support from Family and Friends.
