The transformative medium of art has long been harnessed as a vital tool for personal growth, social change, and liberation. In my zine project, I explore art as a means of overcoming internalized oppression and inspiring individuals to reach their full potential outside the constraints of traditional Western mind frames. This creative work takes the viewer through the life cycle of a flower as a metaphor to describe the journey of self-expression and personal empowerment of an individual.
