"My images are symbolic and have an aspect of surrealism to emphasize the way the eating disordered mind can often convince us to think, feel, and see things about ourselves that are often completely inaccurate. A lot of people think eating disorders are all about food, weight, and unusual behaviors but not many people understand that this is actually the eating disorder’s way of distracting everyone from what is really going on deep inside." - Emma McEvoy
