The artwork “Change is hard” is by Elisa Beli Borrelli
Description: The stylised artwork shows a person in a non-distinct room. There are several boxes on the floor, some opened, some taped shut. There are cracks in the wall. In front of the wall stands a mirror. A person stands in front of the mirror. The colours of the trans pride flag are running down their body. The blue color forms a big tear on their face.
The reflection in the mirror shows an entirely different room, all pink and neatly decorated. The reflection of the person leans out of the mirror. The reflection comforts the person in front of the mirror with an embrace.

It’s beautiful
I wish I could go to the past and tell my younger self that she’s going to be okay and is worthy of love…
Sometimes I get this image in my head of my pre-transition self crying while sitting on a chair and an apparition of my current self standing behind and hugging her. I imagine a lot of us have had similar thoughts seeing how well this artwork resonates with so many of the people here. It’s a really beautiful image in multiple ways.
This is so good I’m crying. Thank you for sharing <3
You and me, friend. I get teary-eyed every time I look at it, so I had to share it.
This pic is nice
My mirror is broken, it usually throws punches instead of hugs…
(I’m working on it)
our mirror must also be broken >~< darn
It truly is, when first movibg out I found it incredibly hard at first. But in the end it’s nice.
No matter how you need to be in person, on here, you can always be a silly girl ♥︎

Thanks, I needed this.

The art remindsmre of body painting / paintfur art where illustrated characters cover themselves in paint or mud. My favorite artist in that genre is 井上くと https://www.pixiv.net/users/8954680
