About Don’t Criii
I have a keen focus on shedding light on the struggles of addiction. Don’t Criii is a passionate exploration of these deeply human experiences. My art is driven by an urgency to depict the realities of addiction, while also highlighting the journey of recovery. Don’t Criii’s narrative intricately navigates the intersection of substance abuse and youth, offering thought-provoking insights and fostering conversations around these pressing societal issues. Ultimately advocating for greater awareness and support for those affected by these challenges.
