"Introspection" is a self-portrait depicting a dimly lit bathroom setting, in which I am shown pulling down my eyelid while looking intently into a mirror. Water in the sink can also be associated with the chaos in my personal life. Overall, this piece expresses my recognition of personal struggles, a call to introspection, and a need for clarity.
