have you ever seen crabs in a bucket?

Have you ever seen crabs in a bucket? They push and pull one another in an attempt at escaping, uncaring if the others make it out. Crawling over each other at some chance of freedom, they all end up falling back to the bottom of the bucket. Soft domestic trauma functions in the same way. The family slowly eats away at one another in acts of passive aggression masquerading as affection. This slow erosion from trauma affects the psyche and one's ability to form healthy relationships with others and within themselves.

This work explores inter-familial relationships and our relationship with the past. How does intergenerational trauma influence the living? What does soft domestic trauma do to the psyche?
