Artist Statement:
The series "Messy Hair, Messy Hearts" and "Chapter 2: They're Trying Their Best" depicts paintings focusing on the female. Although the portraits themselves do not represent any woman in particular, Atria finds herself in each of the personified characters. She invents and documents these women in a desire to better understand herself. The characters represented intuitively tell stories which she hopes allows the viewer to achieve a sense of healing and self-definition.
