Gen Z Toxicity [a series of unresolved issues]

Gen Z Toxicity [a series of unresolved issues] is a gender-fluid collection with a focus on my cultural background, heritage, personal feelings, and art appreciation. The main inspiration and primary research come from my family's past during the communist period in Romania, compared to today's generation and society. Exploring the subject in depth allowed me to understand how we got to be so affected by our parents and grandparents' toxic behaviour unconsciously developed while dealing with several struggles. Therefore, I want to take inspiration and elements from the past and fit them into my present to create a better future.
