Why this piece connects to me
This art piece, The Benefits of Conformity by Robert Lebsack, connects to me because of what is happening to the woman. She is naked, having been stabbed by a key, most likely to keep her suffering. Because she is naked, she is vulnerable, and I relate to that because there are times where I feel vulnerable, especially when there is an argument among my friends which I cannot stop. If there's a conflict with someone and I'm forced to take a side or not be able to make peace, I also feel vulnerable. The suffering is connecting to me because I am also in pain sometimes, especially when I have to choose a side with my conflicting friends. When I reflect my own darkness, boosted by the fact that I am a Four, it echoes, and I feel like curling up like the lady. The key stabbed into her represents the secrets I keep from myself and my friends, lying because a better answer doesn't show itself to me.
