I’m almost forty and I’m scared.
I’m afraid of old age, withering, Alzheimer’s, death. There are changes in the body and psyche that I do not understand and do not control.
I put fear, anxiety and anxious expectation in images created based on horror films that I have loved since childhood.
I’m going to be forty soon and it’s inevitable.
