Wearing Them

Offered in high resolution to Patrons!

So this started out as a critique of society-enforced circumcision. Then as I was sketching, the character pulling the skin became female-presenting because it just FELT right. Then it became a gender expression study. Then it looped back to female circumcision, and abuse. Then it went back to pulling the skin of the past, as a burden.
All this to say; the message is about wearing the skin of those left behind; including our past selves. The interpretation is up to y'all! :)

It's a bit different, but it was an idea I wanted to express, and I'm glad I did! ^^;
