About the Artwork
“This is a drawing of me, inspired by the children’s board game Operation. I experienced panic attacks for the first time while living in Tokyo, but they have subsided since I moved back to the US. I drew this to process what I was experiencing and to commit to a plan of stress reduction and healing.”
