Theme of the Fortnight: HEARTBREAK

We have all experienced heartbreak at one point in life. It feels almost inevitable- a part of life that is difficult to avoid- unless we close ourselves off from feeling or loving another. When a heart breaks it feels as though it might never heal. Nights feel endless. A stream of memories replay repeatedly.

Theme of the Fortnight: FREEDOM

To be human often means we lack the freedom to express who we truly are. Many of us suppress our true selves in fear of what others might think. Sometimes we are forced to hide parts of ourselves away from family members, friends, or society. We can feel ashamed of who we really are, or what we want in life.

Theme of the Fortnight: SHADOW

Shadows follow us everywhere. Cast by the sun in the day, and by the moon at night; they exist all around us. When the moon casts shadows in our room, the darkness can feel ominous, frightening. Sometimes you can't make out the shape of a shadow, what it is, or where it is coming from. Shadows are captivating, haunting.

Theme of the Fortnight: PAST

The past is so intrinsically weaved within us all. Everyone has a past: memories, stories, events that we wish we could replay or forget. The past can conjure up millions of emotions in us: happiness, sadness, fear, loss, love, heartbreak, anger, regret, the list goes on.
