Absolute Rubbish EXTRA Terrestrial

Stella is an extraterrestrial being with an abundance of feelings. Her body is covered in more than twenty reactive tentacles, covering her hands, legs, and head. She experiences the world intensely and often feels overstimulated. To ground herself, she surrounds her body with plush stuffed animals, soft, colorful, and familiar objects that offer emotional reassurance. Her outfit represents how comfort items can become armor, protection, and emotional support.

As Stella moves, her glowing tentacles shift colors, showing her inner emotional world. This piece explores mental health, anxiety, and the ways people find comfort in material objects.
