"Nothing to grasp here. Help us avoid you. I am not as just as I think I am. Still. Depleted. It has to be simple. Nothing to see here. Do not protect me. Recharge. Recover. Rewire. Rebel. Tone-deaf. Guilt. Shame. Exclusion. Seclusion. Masking. Empowerment. It’s not what it seems. Stagnation blues. I am an ableist. I am a typicalist. Love yourself."

Related access points vary from sub-micron scale of tangible materials to issues that minorities deal with at the mercy of the majority’s power. For me they all merge under the roof of “democratization” and “empathy”. Please see the following tweet thread for inspiration for this particular work:
