A collage I did yesterday

CW: Mention of mental health stuff (nothing current)

I made a collage/mosaic out of 5 pictures cut into many peaces:
my shattered portrait represents my depression
the shattered house reps my traumatic childhood
the shattered forest reps the current geopolitical situation
red reps my broken heart
In the bottom right corner there is my dog #Platon. Only he is whole. He looks at it all and sees a complete picture, with no flaws and no judgement. Platon makes me whole. :flan_heart:

A portrait mode collage made out of many small, mostly black and white, some red peaces, looking like a mosaic. Many peaces look like they just show patterns, but they are very detail rich photos of a house and a forest. The red one really is a floral pattern. In the two left corners there are round structures and if you look closely, they look like persons hatching out of eggs. The bottom right corner shows a stylized dog face looking towards the rest of the picture. In the center there are some pieces of a portrait of my face.
