This piece is part of a series called 'Let Go.'

What do we hold on to? What do we let go of? At times, when I approach a dark place in my mind, I find myself holding onto negative thoughts and letting go of the notion that things can and will change. This piece is about swapping that narrative: letting go of negative thoughts and holding on to the notion that things can and will change. As this practice in letting go has taught me, even when it is incredibly difficult, if I hold onto life, release expectations, and trust the process, I will be surprised by how change and evolution always manifest.

Using a diverse array of collage materials, I enlist gravity's help to compose this series. After selecting my collage materials, I relinquish control and let them fall where they may—literally. In doing so, I suspend my thoughts and conditioned habits, resulting in outcomes more interesting than I could have imagined. Once the procedure is complete, I reclaim the power of assigning meaning, as we humans often do.

Much like life's journey, this series portrays a cycle of choice, chance, acceptance, and interpretation. I encourage viewers to spend time with the work, asking themselves: What could it be? What could it mean to me?
