“Like all crustaceans, lobsters grow inside their shell and eventually become too confined and must molt; a process where lobsters swim to the ocean floor and cast off their old shell to then grow one that is new. With this work, I am inspired by this regenerative process and pair it with the human form to ponder the question if mental strife can be intrinsic to mental growth. If so, what do these new “shells” resemble in human form and how can we learn from the ones we have casted away?”
