My Internal Revolution/Kicked Off the Rails
By Andrew Love
This piece is creation of my inner workings over my life span. The Rubik's Cube is a tangible and visible expression of my brain and how it had been manipulated and tweaked by others with nefarious intentions. I sought clinical support and therapy over a 20-year period, continuously. I was either misdiagnosed or discouraged from exploring why I truly felt the way I did. My mind felt like a mental prison. However, I tried to escape from it, many parts of me would remain stuck. The train track is a representation of me being kicked off the rails with my inner child attempting to escape the madness. I played with this train set as a child. Behind the mask of a mountain and mental prisoner is a survivor of trauma with a heart and mind that will not be broken.
