 I was recently working on a collaborative bookmaking project, and my collaborators were so quick to discard images with the slightest mistake. So I asked them if I could hold on to those mistakes to use in the creation of some individual artworks. Those things most would throw away can become so meaningful. Acknowledged mistakes, throwaways, became the materials for my subconscious collage. The collage in turn became a poetic example of my experience, the girls’ experiences, and how society handles mistakes and those that make them.
