About the art
Artist statement
The lost and distracted gaze of the March Hare suggests a mind immersed in a labyrinth of thoughts, unable to establish a coherent connection with the surrounding reality. This gesture symbolizes the disconnection from reality that those struggling with mental disorders often experience, witnessing a world that seems alien and distant. The porcelain cup held in one hand and the teapot in the other reveal a profound rupture with the seemingly simple act of serving tea. It's as if she is trapped in an eternal moment of indecision, incapable of performing such a mundane task.
This visual representation highlights the state of absorption and distancing of the character from the environment while addressing the indifference towards those suffering from mental illnesses. It serves as a reminder of the need for understanding for those who face invisible battles. In a world that often appears so fast-paced and distant, this piece invites reflection on the importance of pausing, looking beyond appearances, and cultivating an environment where empathy can flourish.
