30”x40” Acrylic on Stretched Canvas
Her words awoken something within me, a spark that lit the still quiet dullness where I had dwelled for far too long. I was hit with a sudden clarity that I chose to stand still, to be stuck, to shrink myself into the corner rather than stand tall and proud in my power. She spoke and I heard a part of myself that was aching to be released. I felt a cry of frustration rising from the depths, a sadness for the time lost, a rage that I had allowed such a transformation, a joy that I was finally remembering the freedom, the power, the lightness of being fully me.
The Wild Collection emerged as a response to the profound impact of emotions. During a retreat in the woods near Boston, alongside 85 women, we unleashed our screams, tears, and rediscovered the power and resilience we had neglected for too long.
For years, I suppressed my sadness and never fully acknowledged the depth of my anger. Nearly ten years ago, as I started painting, those long-buried emotions started to resurface. This collection symbolizes the liberation of my emotions, embracing feelings of frustration, confusion, rage, and desperation. Rather than conceal them, I now channel the energy of these emotions to propel myself forward on this journey. The movement, layers, and colors in these pieces reflect an internal intensity, revealing the profound richness and complexity of our deeply felt emotions.
