ABOUT THE ARTWORK
Inspired by mental health & illness, to help continue the conversation. Gun violence specifically inspired this piece, with the increase of school shootings amongst our youth. "Youth" ("30" x 40" mixed media on canvas) 50+ plastic toy soldiers were used to create a gun placed on a graffiti type background. Footprints in the gun are a vague representation of lives lost due to gun violence. Mental health & illness has been and continues to be an issue especially from ages 15-24, according to centre for addition and mental health, it's the second leading cause of death for that age group after accidents. In addition according to their study, 70% of mental health problems develop during childhood/ adolescence. Hence why plastic toy soldiers were used to create the gun as it represents our youth, a time where your life should feel less weighted and more free. Hope to provide a reminder that no matter what tragic experiences and struggles we face, we can't allow it to hold us back from continuing. Words/quotes are written on the sides of the canvas by yours truly. - Unframed (recommend to leave as is due to plastic toys) - Includes attached wire on the back of canvas for hanging - Gallery Wrapped Heavy Duty Canvas

Pandora Owl
Canada
Pandora Owl was born and raised outside of Toronto, Ontario. Started her journey, building a career in advertising until she decided to make a leap into following her art passion. Her art focuses on mental health & illness in order to help comfort those who suffer from it as well as exposing it to those who don’t. She leverages mixed media in order to tell her stories, often referencing her youth by incorporating items such as comics and or toys; a style she developed in her art class back in high school. Her textured mixed media art has many layers that can be seen and felt but most importantly ignite and continue the conversation of mental health as it’s increasingly making its way to the forefront.
