Painting/Drawing
Some people discard their childhoods, worn out and out-worn. Others fold them away on a shelf and take them out occasionally, to look at. I wear mine all the time, a coat that defines and protects. I guess it depends on who you were and who you are and perhaps, who you are about to become.
Sometimes a doll is a doll; sometimes a baby is a baby, sometimes not.
My images explore hidden narratives, emotions and perspectives imbued within the objects and beings of our memories. They are from communal as well as personal stories, distilled and frozen out of their narratives. They embody, for me, the whole even though they are essentially residue, tucked into a pocket of memory. Resonant not only because of shared cultural narratives but because extracted and apart they carry a strange energy in their awkwardness.
