As someone who has experienced Auto-Immune Encephalitis, it has become a large part of who I am and the journey I have endured. Commonly known as Brain on Fire, I wanted to showcase who I was to how I am. The piece on the right showcases how I was before treatment, slowly burning away at my old self – including a photo from my time spent in the hospital. The middle piece showcases the haziness of what my future would be, my drug-induced haze, and the mind-altering distress I experienced. The last piece (the left) showcases who I am now. All of the troubles, the side effects, the trauma–all of what I endured to become who I am now. A stronger person than who I was.
