CHANGYU ZOU | STRESS DIAL FOR BREATHE MAGAZINE
July 04, 2026 Changyu Zou
Thrilled to finally share this stunning piece about anxiety called “Stress Dial” by #lcmartist Changyu Zou for Just Breathe Magazine. Stress Dial imagines anxiety as a dial that can be turned up or down. The work explores how the mind magnifies uncertainty, repeatedly anticipating danger and dwelling on possible outcomes. By giving stress a tangible form, the illustration visualizes the invisible mechanisms of worry and emotional overload. The piece reflects the ongoing search for balance between pressure and calm, inviting viewers to consider whether they are controlling their anxiety or allowing it to control them.
