Homeostasis

This body of work was created over the course of a year.  In that time, I have witnessed a parent’s struggle with dementia and the blossoming of a teenage daughter.  I have watched the culture and landscape of America change in alarming ways.  I have held a newborn.  I have sold my first piece to a permanent gallery collection and been photographed with a celebrity on Miami Beach.  I have both homeschooled my child and driven her to school for the first time in five years.  I have experienced the terror of a cancer diagnosis and surprising changes to my body as the result of treatment.   I have lost friends who couldn’t bear the pain of witnessing my pain.  I have comforted my sister through her cancer treatment.  I have danced at a friend’s seventies inspired wedding and eaten chanterelles and venison that my husband harvested from the hill where we live.

I am and am not the same person I was a year ago.

What remains unchanged?
