Artist Statement:

This surrealistic picture illustration deals with the psychological process of failing relationships, covering how it all begins little by little then suddenly fails beyond repair. Through a therapy session, my main character reflects on how things deteriorated with his loved one, these include fights, misunderstandings, mental issues or as the main character states: “a simple case of feelings wearing off”. The intended purpose for this project is to show the gradual phases of problems, from miniscule to immense. I then use Surrealism and dreams to depict the inception and unconscious states of such problems as they develop.
