Irritations form beauty

Pearls are found inside living creatures; Pearls are formed due oyster's protecting themselves’s from foreign substances. The oyster's natural reaction is to cover up an irritant to protect itself. The man­tle covers the irritant with layers of the same nacre substance that is used to create its shell, this eventually forms a pearl.

This concept could be interpreted metaphorically to how imperfections or ‘irritants' can be ground down or worked into to form something of beautiful. 

Whether it be dancing with the black dog, body issues or simply feeling bleh; positivity and creativity can come out of your slump.

A quote inspired me by photographer Laura Hospes

"Whenever I feel depressed or get the urge to express myself, I have to take a photograph. For me it's like when you cry if you're sad or shout when you're angry,”

A time for reflection, where everything can seem bleak and endless; that you are all alone can be used as a sparking point to communicate your ideas, think about your thoughts. 

Upon a Sunday remains you’ll realise that hundreds and thousands of people are in the same boat as you; but in fact they’re not. It’s your boat. Your experience. Your mind and thats whats magic about the whole thing. Everyone is an individual and have their own story to tell.

in my case irritabilities in my life issues and tissues have been a huge influence to my art work and have also helped me connect with people on a much deeper level.  

Thoughts, emotions, and moments of eruption, analyse these moments as something of beauty. Pearls everywhere baby.
