Unveiling the Story

This image symbolizes the ANPs (Apparently Normal Parts) within the Fam, who take on various roles and personas to blend into societal expectations of “normalcy.” The vibrant central mask represents the individuality and complexity of the internal world, while the surrounding plain masks reflect the outward roles adopted to navigate daily life. Each mask signifies a carefully crafted facade, hiding the emotional depth and internal struggles beneath. This poignant representation highlights the duality of maintaining external appearances while protecting the internal system.
