City: Charlotte

Brain Injury: Stroke

Explanation of Mask: I used the color orange because it is like oompa loompas in Willy Wonka.  Purple is for the reflection on my past life.  I chose red around my mouth to indicate “vibrancy”.  The screws in my forehead represent an image of my craniotomy.  Nothing is more important to me than music!  I feel stronger as a result of my injury.
