they are you . They are personalities . I have been working on a visual language that considers relationships ; relationships with the self and relationships with others . For it is all of what life is about when we take away all the frills and stuff , what it comes down to are the relationships we maintain in our lives . I have personified the box . I have given it feelings . I have brought it to life , handed it thoughts and emotions . Essentially , they , the boxes , are metaphors for what happens with and between humans . They can be a source of strength and a jumping off point for one to question their own humanity and resourcefulness . Am I doing the right thing for me ? And for the right reasons ?
