Oljemålning Shame av Lisa Latorre

Shame, 2023

Olja
90 x 115 cm

Due to my traumas, my body has found a creative way to regulate emotions.
I process all my emotions and experiences in life in “internal abstract images” instead of feeling them.
Because it's simply too painful to feel them.
A creative coping-mechanism.
Shame, which is a feeling, I experience as an abstract image.
I have accepted and I’m grateful that I can regulate myself in this way and have done since I was a child.
It has helped me to not lose my mind or become a totally destructive person. It is my most valuable tool for healing.
And for that I’m grateful.

Lisa Latorre
32 year old painter from Västerås Sweden.

My paintings are large size portraits.
Portraits of different dissociated parts of myself. I have a background of severe physical and psycological trauma.

The "entities" or identities that i paint, hold memories from abuse so I dont have to remember the things that are to painful for me to remember.

Being able to express myself through art have always been very healing for me and a necessity for my survival.

My healing journey and the courage to integrate continues.
