🇬🇧 I have always been a lonely child. There was a huge age gap with the other children in my family, so I was often bored. But I was lucky to be creative. I drew, told stories, read, played video games. This became my comfort bubble. My jobs were born from that bubble. I could make a living by drawing, telling stories, writing, and making video games. As a child, I was searching for validation and recognition, as if to tell myself that I existed outside of my bubble. As an adult, the lack of recognition, failures, and humiliations slowly cracked my comfort zone. It had become a prison. And in early 2025… my bubble burst. For the first time, it no longer existed. I found myself unable to hold a pen, unable to create, to argue, to fight. Paradoxically, away from the constraints of employment, I could still create for myself, posting a lot on Instagram. For myself… or out of a perverse desire for immediate recognition. At least when the algorithm allowed it. A year later, it is still difficult for me to work. I watch the successes of others with envy, while failures keep piling up on my side. And without my bubble to protect me, they crush me with their weight. Yet, I still have that flame. That spark. That small inner voice telling me: You fell. You crashed. But it’s not over. You still have things to tell. Failure is not an end. So, slowly, exhausted and wounded, I stand back up. I don’t know if 2026 will be my year, but it’s up to me to build a future where my protective bubble can shine a thousandfold.

🇬🇧Do you follow artists online? First of all: good job.
You may have already left comments like:
“Your drawing reminds me [insert random popular stuff].”

For you, it’s a compliment.
But for the artist, it can be experienced as something quite harsh.

And YET, those comments usually come from a good place.

According to psychologist Leon Festinger, humans understand the world through comparison (yes, I actually did some research to better understand this).
When someone looks at an artwork, their brain looks for a familiar reference. Not to diminish the artist, but to make sense of what they’re feeling.

On the viewer’s side, it’s an attempt to explain an emotion.
On the artist’s side, that comparison can feel like a threat to their own creativity. It’s not experienced as a neutral comparison, but more like: “People don’t see what I created, they see what it reminds them of.”

And that directly affects identity, ego, and creative legitimacy.

In the end, there’s no villain in this story.
The audience is trying to understand.
The artist is trying to be recognized for who they are.

It’s just two different cognitive logics crossing paths.

So next time you want to hype up an artist, maybe instead of comparing, we could just say:
“I like what YOU do.”

And that changes everything. ❤️
