From Chaos to Calm

From Chaos to Calm
Border

One upon a time - From chaos to calm, my journey through Dyslexia. The design for this border represents my journey of living with Dsylexia, from being diagnosed as a child to how it affects my life today. On the left of the border the planting is dense and chaotic, representing the confusion of jumbled letters and back to front numbers, leading to not understanding why I couldn't do things like my classmates. I was lucky and was sent to Aston University to learn strategies to find my way around the challenge of reading words on a page. Further along the border, the textures and colours find a rhythm and flow which represent resilience and finding new way of thinking. The end of the border is calmer but with a few plants in the colour scheme that stand out to represent that I still have Dyslexia but have developed the confidence to meet new challenges in my life.
