In this self portrait, I explore the darkness in my own soul and my transcendent nature, which Aristotle defined as the core or essence of a living being. My weaknesses are evident in the portrait, but there is also an aura of hope that my soul will transcend the chains that hold me to this earthly exsistance and will one day soar above this ‘grave o’er hanging firmament’ and find repose among the angels.
