Description
This is a photograph of my third canvas for my HSC Body Of Work.I'm really excited because this is one finished. I'm so relieved.
This reflects the media's play on Mental illness and the publics perception of those with mental illness due to the 'evil' stigmata the media portrays.
The verse over top is the representation written by a schizophrenic on how the portrayal of them within the media/public affects those with mental illness.

Hi Buddha-Dharma-Sangha, i am creating an easy to navigate and understand website for teenagers about mental illness. On the website there will be an art page that will feature two types of art: what it feels like to have an illness (dark side) and the lighter side concerning hope and it is possible to live normally with one. i was wondering if i could feature your artwork in the gallery - there will be a link to this page next to the featured image, also your name (either DA name or real name) if you are interested let me know 
many thanks, steph

Absolutely beautiful work. Mental illness is not something to just brush off (personal experience), and the media can really do a lot to fuck up what its really like. Keep up the amazing work!

It looks like art. I'm not quite clear what it is saying, but I do like it. I have a mental illness myself.

This is really inspriring and conveys the distortion and lack of "journalistic honesty" and ethics really well. Hey-HSC major work? Great to meet another fellow HSC-er, except well, my major works are for music. This looks great, hope you do fantastic
