Burdened Print

State of the R (SotR for short) is into being who you are and supporting, while not getting in the way of, others doing the same. She creates artwork which is affective, reflecting an edgy, street art sensibility. SotR enjoys working with a variety of materials to generate art presenting a range of emotions through the use of textures, strokes, colors, and mediums. She embraces and celebrates the entire emotional spectrum, and as a strong proponent of mental health awareness, self-care, and self-empowerment for all, she uses her creations on different mediums to reflect on feelings, personally and socially. SotR’s hope is to bring emotions to life in an approachable way and potentially help others not feel so alone, even if it’s just a ‘hey, that made me smile’ reaction to her art. “My mission is to spread the message that ‘it is ok to be you’ by creating approachable, confidently imperfect characters which dare you to be yourself!” - SotR
