About the Piece
Aura is a print that captures the intersection of electricity and the mind, inspired by the elusive experience of migraine auras. While the exact causes of these auras remain a mystery, research suggests they may stem from electrical waves in the visual cortex.
These sensory disturbances, like dots, sparks, or zigzags in one's vision, often precede a migraine headache.
In my personal encounters with migraine auras, I have witnessed a box-like shaped light disrupting my vision.
This print translates my experiences into a visual representation using geometric shapes and rough textures. It invites viewers to explore the intricacies of perception and contemplate the electricity that is within us and to highlight the intricacies of the human condition.
