Artwork Description: A digitally drawn portrait of a woman is presented as an analogy in problem-solving. The stylised palette represents the loss of one’s identity and purpose when becoming overwhelmed by unplanned changes, problems, or stress, triggering the feeling of ‘coming undone’, here represented by the unfinished puzzle. Care professionals offering emotional and practical assistance have a role in helping to put the pieces back together, as portrayed through the pieces of the puzzle drowning in ‘a sea of sorrow’ but coming together to bring the person back to her original self.
