... Read moreI've always found that using art as a way to express complex emotions can be incredibly healing. The phrase "She was a RAINBOW but they were colorblind" really resonates as it captures how sometimes our true essence and vibrancy are not seen or appreciated by others. In my experience with crochet and print art, each project is a way to channel feelings of struggle and resilience. The colorful themes and the physically engaging process help me overcome personal challenges, much like the quote from the image recognition: "The universe keeps stomping on me like I won't get up feral as fuck. Keep it up, bitch. I'm almost healed enough to become a real problem." This defiant spirit encourages pushing through adversity. Working with techniques such as DTF (Direct to Film) prints or intricate crochet patterns has allowed me to create tangible representations of these ideas — showcasing not just brightness and beauty but also the strength beneath. Whether it's vibrant yarn or a bold print, these crafts become a form of self-therapy and communication beyond words. For anyone feeling unseen or misunderstood, embracing a creative outlet can be a powerful tool to reclaim your narrative and display your unique colors even if others are colorblind.
