Looper is a visual representation of the mental and physiological balancing act we all engage in the idea of “control.” When faced with the feeling of not having control, sometimes we grasp more tightly (to things, situations, people, etc.) to conserve feelings of convenience, safety, or comfort due fear of failure in the face of change. These behaviors can bring more adverse experiences, though, leading to mental or physical decline rather than growth. Letting go, on the other hand, can free us from the chains of the necessity to be in control. To know when it is best to hold on or let go is a challenge and sometimes we get turned around and around in the process. Bright colors relay an underlying but powerful positivity that dominates the darkness of being tangled up in such a situation.
