Don’t Be Afraid to Care
2020
collage & watercolor on paper
A collection of words, colors, & images telling the disjointed story of 2020. It is both personal journey and the story of the collective. The chaos is undeniable but also is the contramessage “Don’t be afraid to care”. The work invites the viewer to explore the shared consciousness. Using the scraps of media destined for the trash, I pull from the zeitgeist and give new purpose to the language & imagery, empowering an unconscious mashup of symbols and meaning.
