Introversion and shyness are gifts, embracing them is a skill to learn.

I attempted to capture a range of introverted and shy emotions that

I experience in my daily life, translating subtle feelings into tangible, visually tactile images.

We can tell our stories in ways that make us stronger, 

in ways that soothe the losses, in ways that ease sorrow.

Tell all the truth but tell it slant —
Success in Circuit lies
Too bright for our infirm Delight
The Truth's superb surprise
As Lightning to the Children eased
With explanation kind
The Truth must dazzle gradually
Or every man be blind —

-  Emily Dickinson
