The Only Way Out Is Through
30”x40” Acrylic on Stretch Canvas
What cannot be avoided by Artists or Spiritualists is going into the darkness. Facing the shadows, the secrets, the lies we’ve told on our path is the only way to let them go. This work explores the first steps from the bright and shiny world I thought myself to inhabit into the reality of my relationships, my work, my vision of my self worth. It is a choice to continue deeper into a space that will sure become darker in order to see the truth of what is possible. In order to emerge free from the bitter self judgement and comparison to an authentic freedom, a purposeful path, and a stable sovereignty.
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.
