It Eats Me Alive and Goes Through the Other Side (2020) clay, glaze, and chain

Mental illness can consume me when I am in situations that trigger it, often taking in all of me and spitting out the bones. I find it sometimes impossible to avoid these situations as they often stand in the way when leaving is not an option. When I find myself in this place, I cannot see or hear reality, feeling trapped by a monster that is hard to control. I eventually find my way out, find help, but that can only stave off the beast for so long until it finds me vulnerable once again.
