'Hiding'
Multimedia collage
A4 (210 x 297mm)
The ninth in a series of 12 collages.
"It changed me. I had forgotten how I used to be.
And didn’t want to be who I used to be. I was hiding.
Because being seen hurts too much."
------
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.
