delusional parasitosis
The "Delusional Parasitosis" series is the result of an inquiry of mental illnesses, particularly eating disorders. This delves deeper into how mental diseases alter people's perceptions of reality. Consuming food is thereby regarded as a skewed behavior in which eating becomes an impediment to healthy nutrition and enjoyment.
These artworks, further seeks to improve viewers' awareness of mental illness by having them identify with subjects who experience discomfort as a result of this reality distortion.
In a world where food becomes a nightmare, an obsession and a compulsion, swarms of insects invade our plates and like parasites feed on our insecurities and fears.
