About This Collage
It wasn’t what I wanted that got me into trouble
It was not knowing how to want
Forgetting who or what or that I desire
Thinking that thinking could win in the end
Tuning out the ache, turning down the longing
That’s how this all began.

This collage belongs to a series of works that was created while I processed an intense personal tragedy that resulted in a number of seismic shifts in life, faith, and vocation. Its heaviness and hopefulness - its heart and its hurt - reflect my inner world during that time.
