This is based on a personal narrative, the story of my ACL tear. Though its genesis
wasn’t painful, the time that has passed since the injury’s “repair” has given me cause for much
frustration. For months, I could only sleep soundly in the fetal position. Stretching the muscles and
ligaments straight after hours of it being bent always causes excruciating pain. Without constant 
strengthening exercises I know that it will never be the same. It is my weakest link. For these
reasons, the knee is the focal point of this peice. Though the thigh and calf muscles all seem
healthy and normal to their inherent anatomy, the entire leg is made unstable. I do not trust it
to bear my weight. Though I have attached my own meaning to this work, only take it into consideration. Allow my creations to trigger your own thoughts. That is all I can hope for. Thank you.
