Gained inspiration and drive from Joan Mitchell and Jack Coulter

The self changes and morphs over time. The accumulation of thread onto the last figure represents a heightening in emotional chaos, and struggle. My self as I know it. Changing and hard to understand by each growth and death.

But it is still, and your inner dialogue writing the story of your importance and existence simply stops. 

Time moves on, life’s pages change every second, new words are creased and drawn into our souls every day.
