Brain Injury: Diffused Axonal Injury from a car accident in the country of Spain

Explanation of Mask: I was in an auto accident and I sustained a massive brain injury.  My journey has felt long and unending.  I have felt like I was a prisoner in my own head.  I was not able to communicate clearly so I put bars over my mouth to represent this.  This mask also shows the two parts of myself.  The red side with the random dots show the chaos I feel, and the blue side with the clouds shows the light and hope in God.  I have placed 2 hearts over the eyes with the words Love & Hope.  This signifies to me that I’m looking through the filter of Love & Hope.
