Abstract
Go on, child. You may break, consumed, but you will come out transformed.
Faced with a life-altering decision, Mirage chooses to confront her own memories of childhood and come face to face with the past versions of herself that she had shed many years before. Weaving together altered memories, illusions, and gripping realities, this piece illuminates the process of healing from past trauma and starting anew.
