Exploring the emotions and experiences of being a chronically ill child, teenager, and adult, this visual chronicle followed the artistic maturing of emerging artist Tyler Grace.
A showcase of both the seen and the unseen impacts of chronic illness, this series was both beautiful and dark and took the viewer inside the often unbearable world experienced by the artist.
‘My images are my most important storytelling tool… I aim to create an emotional impact whilst making others consider things that they may not have experienced in their own life…however, I encourage viewers to find their own worlds inside my images, and attach their own meaning’.
