"Floating" is a new mixed media semi-figurative painting, part of a new series of artworks, named "3L", which explores the reality of living with Lupus and Lyme, showcasing invisible symptoms of these illnesses.
Floating describes the feeling of "floating through life", or the present feeling of immunity or disconnect from all of life's meaning, purpose, reason, values and experiences while maintaining normal life functions and activities.
While being touched by a chronic illness, you often experience feelings of isolation, worthlessness, self pity, failure, estrangement which tend to overwhelm a person's thought process.
Your reality appears to be surreal or dream like, as it has nothing to do with the normal life you had before falling sick.
This cognitive distortion seems somehow to be linked with the treatment's effectiveness, as it feels more intense during a flare up and worsen during a herxheimer reaction.
Medium: Mixed media on canvas
Size: 24 x 36 inches
