The Jellyfish Series is a project by digital artistย Marcia Annor who used illustration to battle her anxiety.
I used to have very severe social anxiety/paranoia. In this series my paranoia is represented by jellyfish because of their movements. On the outside they appear very calm but once out of water, a fish panics, moving very rapidly. This signifies how my thought pattern keep changing at a different pace depending on how paranoid I am. The jellyfish head represents the chaos in my head and the fact that I always feel like Iโm being watched and very out of place, whiles having a human body signify that itโs also part of being a human being. The fact that I canโt swim also adds to this. Jellyfish are my favourite sea creatures!โ
