About the Item

"I Feel Like I’ve Been Torn to Pieces" is a visual metaphor for deep inner conflict, a struggle between forces that tear the self apart. In this work, Irina Burda continues her exploration of internal barriers, subconscious blocks, and the influence of external circumstances on human identity. The image of the torn fish resonates with Jungian concepts of the "shadow"—those aspects of our psyche that we try to suppress or reject. At the same time, the fish, a symbol of the unconscious, appears fragmented, suggesting a sense of lost wholeness and the struggle to reconcile opposing inner states. This work is not just a visual representation of pain but a profound process of self-awareness. It challenges the viewer to ask: What does it mean to be torn between desires and limitations? How do external forces shape our inner reality? How do we piece ourselves back together after a crisis? Through the complex interplay of form and detail, the contrast between chaos and structure, this composition reflects not only destruction but also the potential for transformation. This is art as an act of survival—a fight for one’s true self in a world that imposes its own rules. size of illustration 23-29 cm
