The Fixed

The fixed is an art piece that shows someone who grows up in a tricky situation a person who wants to join two worlds that are both falling apart. Yet both worlds pull away from another unable to see the beauty of each other. This is to be shown that when you are in an impossible situation where you will find the impossible answer it can be liable may things. It has many faces. In the end, people who have seen you your worst are the only ones who can truly see and appreciate you at your best. They are the only ones who can see your true beauty. Not even you yourself can see how unique and exceptionally beautiful you are. The one who sees the demons is also the one who sees the angle. One who can join two worlds must see the bad in both worlds because they also can see the beauty a lesson only learned through experience.

Instead of using these people to join the worlds. They are seen as imperfections that need to be fixed. After they are considered “fixed” they are now ripped from part of themselves that made them unique. The drawing show two impressions one of the world of the native Americans and one of an American family that has seen the worst in people. The person in this image also struggles with inner demons shown by the symbol and her right eye.
