Even the biggest smile conceals a past full of pain and a million tears. The walls that we build around us to keep out the sadness, also prevent happiness from entering and many times we consider hiding sadness under a smile is the best we can do, but hiding your sadness does not alleviate your pain.

This is an art inspired in those moments that we have to pretend what we feel masking our feelings

The question is!:

Do you smile because you want or to hide the sadness that your eyes reflect?
