"Selfless" by Eimear Kearns
Oil paints on paper
In my personal artwork, I have often tried to depict my experiences with OCD.
This faceless painting is one such attempt of showing how it can feel like OCD has erased one's identity. The sacrifice of satisfying compulsions can leave individuals unable to do the things they love, and it can take time to take back control, and learn to distinguish between what we enjoy, and what we do simply to silence OCD's voice.
