“Lonely” explores the theme of viewing loneliness as a space for self-discovery and transformation. Instead of depicting isolation as a source of pain, Kayla reframes it as an opportunity for growth. She uses this digital painting to reflect her realization that her self-perception has often been shaped by her proximity to others, and that she needs to understand herself as an individual.
Through the symbolic imagery of a chrysalis and butterfly, “Lonely” illustrates a period of introspection and metamorphosis. Kayla elicits viewers to consider the transformative potential of being alone as a catalyst for personal evolution.
