Bad

The photograph "Bad" is a black and white self-portrait in which the artist is depicted covering one eye with their hand. The hand bears a scar, adding to the overall sense of pain and suffering. The artist's face conveys a sense of anguish and despair, as if they are struggling to bear the weight of the world on their shoulders.

This photograph speaks to the experience of depression and the way in which it can distort our perception of the world. The black and white palette adds to the somber mood of the image, while the gesture of covering one eye suggests a lack of clarity and a distorted view. The scar on the hand adds a layer of vulnerability and personal history to the photograph. "Bad" invites the viewer to consider the impact of mental health on the way we see and navigate the world.
