“Something much bigger”
The title is a line from a poem I wrote about my dead name.
“Dead name not because I killed her, dead name because I grew into something much bigger” from “Sunny Skye”by Skye Rhea(me).
Painted using used medical supplies and puff paint.

The phrase 'Something much bigger' encapsulates the essence of personal growth and transformation, often reflecting an individual's journey in embracing their true self. In the LGBTQ+ community, such expressions are vital, especially during pride month, which celebrates identity and self-love. This artistry not only reveals the pain and healing associated with a 'dead name' but also highlights resilience and courage. Using recycled medical supplies and puff paint symbolizes finding beauty in scars and the power of reclaiming one's identity through creativity. When we engage with art, we connect on deeper levels, fostering understanding and empathy. The hashtag movements like #pride and #illness further showcase the need to normalize conversations around mental health in conjunction with LGBTQ+ pride, encouraging authenticity and inclusiveness. Every artistic expression during pride not only celebrates individual journeys but also strengthens community bonds and awareness.
