Burnt Out

Burnt Out focuses in on hiding behind busy wellness and masking feelings of despair and deep sadness:

The grind of 24/7 stress unmanaged.

Degradation of self, loss of energy, exhaustion, negativity, feelings of self loathing and cynicism of others.

Shadows stretched, incomplete and restless.

A mental struggle pushing against the tenuous threads that hold us together.

Frustration, burnt, broken.

Offers of help are greeted with suspicion.

Kindness is met with a sceptical heart, unwelcome at first, a golden thread to mend the fractures.

Trust, recovery, and reassurance that you are worthy of self-care.

Precious 24k gold leaf and super fine black threads from a bobbin that once belonged to the Macclesfield silk industry, bind together charred areas that have gone too far. Waxed cord, silk fibres and guitar string rounds. Functional golden aluminium tomato puree tube inners, hammered with care and time, shaped into reinforcement patches and staples to repair distress fractures; fixed in place with miniature brass nails. 

Something beautiful has been re-forged.
