About the artwork

Discover the beauty of self-reflection and personal growth with this moving reflection on ending a relationship. While the sense of failure and shame can be overwhelming at first, this journey of emotional processing reveals a deeper beauty in the brokenness that may have been invisible at first.

Not being able to salvage a relationship can trigger feelings of personal inadequacy and judgement from others. People may think you didn't do everything you could to make the relationship work. This inner struggle between your own feelings of failure and the perceptions of others is a challenge many go through. Yet there is a unique strength in embracing this vulnerability and finding beauty in the broken pieces of your life.

In the aftermath of a relationship break-up, you often discover new aspects of yourself and your emotional depths. This process of self-discovery can lead to a renewed sense of self and an understanding of the beauty of your own strength and resilience. The brokenness becomes a source of inspiration and growth, a reminder that beauty and strength can be found even in the most challenging times.

This reflection invites you to embrace your own story of brokenness and recovery, reminding you that every step in your journey is valuable. It is a call to see the lessons and beauty that come from pain, and to realise that you are not alone in your experiences. Let this reflection be a source of comfort and inspiration, and an encouragement to see the beauty in your own brokenness.
