'Grasping for control'
Multimedia collage
A4 (210 x 297mm)
The eighth in a series of 12 collages.
"I was grasping for control.
Trying to control the narrative, trying to control others’ opinion of me, trying to control my pleasure.
Trying to control men with their dick in my mouth."
------
This series of collages is a journey into the shadows. It was an exercise in taking ownership of my experience through a process of enquiry, raw expression, deconstruction and rewriting the narrative. Discovering the beauty in darkness. Through it I was able to shine light on a hidden aspect of my psyche, thereby coming to a fuller expression of my being. Acceptance, integration and finally, surrender.
