My name is Netta.
Take a look into my eyes: They are dark and deep as an ocean.
THE TWINS' STORY
They are filled to the brim with pain and sorrow, But they look up. They look forward.
I am proud of my journey to health, even though my eyes have seen things I wish they had not.
My body in a hospital bed, IVs in my arm. I am too skinny. My eyes only see how much I am not enough. They lied to me over and over.
I taught my eyes to see clearly. With the power of therapy and the freedom of dance, they learned my mind was deceiving them. Through self expression and artistic creation I trained them to see straight.
But my sister, Hagar.
Her eyes never stopped lying.
They told her everything she was not, because she was Everything: a sister, a daughter, an artist.
She did not get better. Her eyes glanced down. Her art got deeper and darker.
She stopped fighting the demons in her head. She gave up.
She found herself in a long sleep with open eyes and a lost soul. For 15 years she lay in bed but didn’t find rest.
We are giving Hagar new life by casting her art onto the world to support others battling eating disorders. Through Hagar’s art, we will help millions of sad, sorrowful, scared, helpless souls across the world.
