I melted beneath the ancient oak
in the climax of the summer,
and the million screaming silhouettes of the devil,
shivered towards me.

This work forms part of the series Fault Lines, which explores the liminal space of early postpartum motherhood. The pieces exist in an ambiguous territory between body and landscape, where lines bleed, dissolve, and re-form — suggesting both rupture and repair.
Pigment moves softly across the silk surface, creating unstable, shifting fields, while the act of stitching holds and contains these forms, introducing a quiet tension between fragmentation and cohesion.
I touch my face to make sure I'm still there.

"My body has become large and hard, a fortress built with dried tears and spilt milk. A protective shield for her and for me, but we are locked in it together even when we need to escape.
I want to be soft and light again, to run like the man I saw, floating through the air, floating like I do when i dream. When I used to dream. When I had time to dream."

"And bit by aching bit, we sneak back into our bodies from before. Before the tide, before the storm came thundering in. Before the hot sleeplessness and cold restlessness. Before the warm, sweet everythingness that is you."
