The work included in this project stems from an investigation into the effects of trauma on artistic production and the ways in which elliptical narrative can create spaces of resuscitation. These image/text works utilize found photography, the artist’s photography, poetic printmaking and hybridized memoir/fairytale prose in order to create post-indexical, psychological self-portraiture. Water, rocks and flooded houses all stand in for the artist. The particular experience of ‘mothering’ foundationally informs this work. 

The book was produced by Single Parent Archive and edited by Kent Clements.
