Not being able to place yourself in a world you are still discovering. Not feeling at home on a planet you don’t understand. Children with depression. There is little light in depression. The subject is often misunderstood. You can hear, read or talk about it, but really understanding it is difficult. Difficult for anyone who has never felt it. Suzie Bloom’s pictures are overwhelmingly honest and make you feel what cannot be explained.

‘When you can’t wrap your head
around all you don’t understand
When you feel left out
and reaching for a hand

A hand on your head
stroking your hair
saying it wants to understand
and always be there’

Suzie Bloom takes you by the hand and leads you into her world. When you’re there, she leaves you alone, together with your own mind and heart. She transfers moods into works of art, that aren’t set in stone. They are open for debate. As it is precisely what art should do, for better or worse.
