Pieng-or Pinpart Artwork Details

 

 

Detailed Description

Pieng-or moulds bronze and brass sculptures that visualize the alternating bouts of extreme depression and mania she suffers through the debilitating disorder. Her bent, beaten, and torn body frames are a graphic expression of her fluctuating range of emotions, the medication used to control the illness, and the physical toll that her body and mind endure. Her battered forms are testament to her creative resilience and her resolve to bring greater stability to her life.
