'On Caring' is a collection of poetic imagery stemming from my experiences of being a young adult carer, to both my father and my younger sister. Considering the dynamics within my family, I began to decipher my own emotional responses to being a carer, exploring associated themes of isolation and the realms of personal escape. Seeking to connect experiences often reserved to the private sphere, the work forms a stream of consciousness or quiet reflection, juxtaposing the realities of the constant nature of being a carer.
