In this intense and thought-provoking narrative, we embark on a journey through obsessive love, exploring the fine line between love and a contagious virus. The story questions the true nature of romance and its addictive power, shared equally between a man, a woman, and their “spotted companions.”

In this powerful narrative, the author reflects on the silent teachings passed down from her mother—a curriculum of beauty, domesticity, and submission to societal roles. As the script grew dull, the pretty princess learned to rebel, breaking free from the expectations to become a wild queen. This story is for those women raised on contradictions who clawed their way from house pets to powerful women.

Breaking away from the conventional “lady and her cat” imagery, “YOU ARE NOT REAL” challenges the duality of woman and beast. The artworks boldly subvert societal expectations, questioning whether the woman is truly civilized or the cat truly tame. A celebration of wildness and rebellion, this series explores the balance between control and chaos, where boundaries are fluid and self-expression knows no limits.
