Inkblot is a series of “unfinished” mixed media paintings designed to share the complications with my lack of vision. Drawing inspiration from the Rorschach Inkblot test, I have used a similar technique for communicating the connection between sight and perception within my work. The test is a psychological experiment where the participant deciphers what they see in a series of inkblots, which is decided based on their personality, tastes, and memories. In relation to the Inkblot series, the viewer is blind to the representation of the image reference and instead the perception of the abstracted shapes determine the meaning and individual experience.
