Perry’s art is a challenge to societal norms and how society believes in the preconceived notions of what a man is supposed to be like having a knot of anger, bundle of insecurities and misplaced pride. These are the traits of toxic masculinity which the society requires a man to behave as for them to be considered a man. This also affects each person’s individual values, affecting their growth. Some examples which clearly identify to this are long buried trauma and spice where due to not having a mentally healthy environment, people develop such mental instability. This is caused due to present day education, not the ones provided by schools but them gaining knowledge from their family, friends, elders and others around them who require them to not express their emotions easily and the fact that they show empathy causes them to to be represented as weak or incapable as a man.
