Brain Injury: Removal of brain tumor from the 4^th ventricle.  1 concussion from a mugging.  1 concussion from a car accident

Explanation of Mask: Having brain trauma/injury was the best thing that ever happened to me.  The black vines represent the “Great Void,” the Great Unknown, the creative force yet to reveal itself in manifest form.  I am a conduit free from blockages, ready willing and able to express creativity.
