Hate Crime, I represents fear and hypervigilance, pain and bloodshed, scars and survival.

A solitary figure huddles on the floor of a dark, barren room, accented only by a window where a black moon looms in the night sky. This painting expresses the extreme isolation and turmoil of deep depression.

An early portrait painting depicting, in part, coming to terms with an anorexic tendency arising from sexual abuse, and attempts to regain a connection to oneself, physically and mentally through this realization.
