Breaking shows the actual act that led my heart to being broken. How so often it felt like someone came and just demolished it. How I was left to pick up the pieces, and I was left to do was grieve this loss.
After years of battling and struggling, my trauma has not only affected me mentally but it has also affected my physically. The hearts to display the different ways trauma has affected me. Clay was chosen because of the process of firing, because refinement forms strength through the fire. The actions seen within the video display how the trauma felt and took place. The reenactment of my hurt and the creation of these piece have not only help heal me, but they have also helped me move forward.
