| dc.description.abstract | The artist's statement: Forgiveness, to me, is the release of all hope for a better past. I have found difficulty in articulating certain events in my past that carry the heaviest emotional burdens. Being quiet about these moments has stifled my voice for expression. The lack of control in these pivotal events has left me feeling unresolved. In order to rectify this discomfort I form highly controlled compositions within my work. Creating small details, such as a clean screen printed line or a tight embroidery stitch, allows me to have a sense of power that I do not typically have. Presenting these works in constricted environments is an echo of the preservation of these memories. My work in fiber is a means of expressing feelings I find difficult but necessary to verbalize. The methodical, meditative processes of this art complement the processes of rumination and reflection that I often find myself in. This is the beginning of a conversation about significant personal events in the attempt to reach a state of acceptance, thankfulness, and forgiveness. This is an apology to the both of us for how long it took me to finally let things go. | |
