’Controlled Burn’ was an idea that came to me suddenly while finishing up another piece. This piece symbolizes to me all the emotions we keep locked up throughout a day to simply get by and peacefully coexist. It makes me wonder what our society would be like if we learned to honestly, safely, and appropriately convey our current emotional state without any call to action or judgment. Would we possibly be a bit more kinder, patient with each other? Would it lighten the burden of carrying such an emotional state to let it breath? I don’t know. I’m sure a psychologist knows.
