Hindi Ko Kailangan Ma Hiya
"Hindi Ko Kailangan Ma Hiya" (ink and etching on scratchboard, 12" x 9") is a commentary on mental wellness using the Filipino concept of "hiya". This is my first fully finished piece on scratchboard, alone, with the use of scratchboard ink and etching tools. The associated video, found here, explains the relationship between shame and the ways that most people discuss mental wellness, mental illness and disability.
