Encroaching Thoughts Artwork - Limited Edition of 100

"Encroaching Thoughts" is a powerful and evocative piece that delves into the complex emotions of feeling surrounded and invaded by external forces. The central figure, a woman with a distressed expression, is depicted amidst a sea of hands reaching out towards her, symbolizing the overwhelming pressures and demands often felt in today's fast-paced world. This artwork was inspired by the personal experiences of dealing with anxiety and the sensation of being overwhelmed by external expectations and societal pressures. It seeks to visualize the often invisible emotional struggles that many people face, capturing the intensity and intrusion of these feelings. I hope viewers will connect with the intense emotions conveyed through the piece, feeling a sense of empathy and understanding for those who experience similar feelings of being overwhelmed. The artwork is meant to evoke a reflective response, encouraging viewers to acknowledge and perhaps find solace in the shared human experience of emotional overload. The choice of digital media allowed for precise control over the composition and the ability to create clean, sharp lines that enhance the surreal and expressive quality of the piece. The surrealistic and expressionistic styles were chosen to emphasize the emotional depth and abstract nature of the subject matter, while the fragmented, glitch-like effects add to the sense of distortion and disarray.
