"Post of Trauma" explores the complex psychological impact of PTSD, expanding beyond the battlefield to encompass all forms of conflict and terror. The artwork’s dual-panel structure integrates both front and back canvases, with layers peeled away to reveal hidden elements—symbolizing how trauma resurfaces in fragmented, nonlinear ways. The interplay of 2D and 3D elements enhances this reflection of how memories persist, sometimes subtly and other times with overwhelming clarity.
Toy soldiers scattered across the canvas stretcher represent the unseen, ongoing internal battle, while the faint, war-torn landscape seeping through the back hints at the lingering influence of the past on the present. The intentionally unfinished state of the piece—with its visible pencil sketches, loose brushstrokes, and raw canvas—reflects the incomplete, unresolved nature of trauma. These exposed elements speak to how the mind continues to grapple with the weight of past experiences, reshaping memories and narratives over time.
"Post of Trauma" ultimately offers a nuanced visual metaphor for the human psyche, revealing both resilience and vulnerability. It invites viewers to consider the lasting effects of trauma while suggesting that healing is an ongoing, multifaceted process—never linear, but constantly unfolding.
