One Feeling Expressed in 2 Languages

Sometimes what appears to be a broken mind is a wounded spirit asking to be heard. My
healing came through spiritual work that helped restore what I felt had become disconnected within me. “INSANITY BECAUSE OSA MEJI” was created during a period when I experienced what I perceived as both a mental and spiritual collapse.

When words failed me, I turned to watercolor. The watercolor and abstraction captured the emotions that language could not hold. I later translated those same emotions into sound with the help of AI, creating a companion piece that can be experienced through an NFC audio recording.

My path to healing included spiritual work that restored a sense of wholeness I temporarily lost. My healing helped me understand that every person’s experience with mental illness is unique, and that for some people, emotional suffering may also have a spiritual dimension.

I offer this work not to explain mental illness nor to offer it as a prescription, but as a reminder that healing can follow many paths, and that for some, the spiritual dimension deserves a place in conversations about mental health.
