Or do they wickedly bite your toes in sight…?  \nIn a scary story, fear is like a shape-shifter. It can disguise itself in the forms of nightmares, themes of death, or mysteries of the unknown. Feasting on our horrors, the narrative of our fears have ghoulishly shaped the scary stories we tell in the dark… Throughout history, mortals have used storytelling to craft haunting imagery. Frightening 18th century viewers, The Nightmare painting by Henry Fuseli, portrays a woman sleeping while a creature sits on top of her vulnerable soul. An eerily painted story that reflects the realm of nightmares. Another artist, such as Frida Kahlo, has used painted symbolism to evoke themes of death, and express the macabre stories of her own life. Similarly, in classic horror novels such as Frankenstein by Mary Shelly and Dracula by Bram Stoker, the stories of these monsters explore the supernatural and fears ofthe unknown. Chilling stories conjured by our fears, yet the monsters echo the shadows that dwell within us… When fear invades our brains with ethereal whispers and hellish wails, those melodies reveal the deepest parts of the self. To release the dissonance, we must learn to dance along with the tune.  \nWhat’s your scary story? Using the medium of your choice, create an artwork that portrays a scary story. Use narrative art to vividly bring your scary story to life. Be honest, be expressive, even be playful. Think of symbolism, composition, and always remember the art of a good scare… Let your fears roam free, in plain sight for all to see!  \nArtist Biography  \nIsabella Fernanda is a multidisciplinary artist based in New York.

I chose to create a piece like this because I feel that way often, and sometimes the pressure to “be better” is exactly what is holding me back.  \nThe juror’s prompt encouraged me to think about what scares me and show it openly. I wanted to make my fear visible, so I added hands grasping at me, digging into my skin, and masks to represent the words that make me feel like I’m not doing enough or doing too much.
