STEPHANIE CAPUTO

My body of work is a heartfelt tribute to those grappling with mental health challenges. Having personally navigated the depths of depression and anxiety, I intimately comprehend the profound impact these struggles can wield over one’s existence. Each piece within my collection is a reflection of the emergence from that murky abyss of despair. Embodying not only the triumphant emergence, but also the enduring journey through the ever-shifting terrain of emotions and coping mechanisms.

My artistic practice serves as a channel for self analysis and empathy, fostering a deeper understanding of the multifaceted nature of mental health struggles and the profound significance of resilience and self-discovery. By inviting viewers into this personal narrative, I aspire to foster a sense of solidarity and compassion, encouraging dialogue and reflection on the universal human experience of navigating the complexities of mental health.
