Living with OCD - Dirt

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder is one of the most misunderstood mental health disorders. As an artist who was diagnosed with severe OCD at the age of 17, I know that living with OCD is living in constant fear. This work displays that fear and the suffocating and weighed down feeling OCD causes.
