Making this ephemera collage piece was very therapeutic and helped me unpack my journey as an artist. I had a lot to process after making it, so I wrote about it and made vignettes for each piece of the story. The collective sum of this work is all close to my heart. I hope you enjoy it.

Here’s a penny pic to show the scale of the piece.
