Description
Dandelion seeds blowing in the breeze. Photo from Hershey, Pennsylvania.
Catharsis (from the Greek katharsis meaning "purification" or "cleansing") is the purification and purgation of emotions, especially pity and fear, through art or any extreme change in emotion that results in renewal and restoration. I named this work Catharsis because the dandelion letting go of it's seeds reminds me of my own letting go of my own negative feelings and emotions resulting in a feeling of renewal.
