Original artwork description
Sometimes it feels as though we are living in a fishbowl—a world as transparent, sweet, and confining as a gelatin dessert. We become accustomed to being the ornaments of our own perfect forms, suspended in anticipation like fish in thick jelly.
This sugary aquarium isn’t just the world around us; it’s our own thoughts, frozen in familiar shapes. We trade the storms of reality for a predictable "cherry on top," but is this aesthetic stability worth the inability to breathe deeply?
