Portraits of Pain - Chronic Illness Through Art

  • Summary

  • Pain doesn’t always look the way people expect it to. Watercolor artist Kyriana delves into the reality of living with chronic pain—a sensation she likens to a broken bone that refuses to heal. Art, for her, is more than a passion; it’s a lifeline and a voice for the often invisible struggles of chronic illness. In this episode, she shares how painting helps her express and validate her symptoms while tackling the disbelief and gaslighting that can come with an invisible condition. Kiriana opens up about the unique catharsis of translating pain into portraits, shedding light on chronic illness and the healing power of creativity.
