Collection concept: The Pain Inside
The way we see people or the way they present to us, especially on social media, is not always the way they really feel. No matter how beautiful, interesting or carefree they seem on the outside, we can never really know what a person is going through, how they really feel, what pain they carry on the inside. This collection is meant to remind you that people are not always how they seem to be, and that we all struggle with pain, discomfort or insecurities. Some hide it better than others, so always choose to be kind to the people you interact with!
