Most people would use this disorder as a hold back however she decided to turn it on its head. She embraces her imperfections by using her patches to create amazing works of art.
Her message is similar to what I feel about not being defined by imperfection, but rather to embrace, accept and love oneself. Never stop striving to be the strongest, healthiest and happiest version of yourself.
