"""This space has birthed her joy""
My name is Victoria Hammond and I am an artist who has always been intrigued by the creative ways you can recycle other people's ""junk"" to make something totally new and wonderful.
I love old photos of women!
By using the old photos of women who have gone before us, I feel I'm bringing them back to life in a way, and honoring an existence that has probably been forgotten.
I love broken things!
I find beauty and interest in ordinary things, many times broken things that most people might just toss away. To me the imperfections make it that much more interesting & unique, & there's a story there.
I love rust!
Rust doesn't necessarily mean old & decaying, it can also mean resilient & strong!
I love fiddling around!
I love scrounging through my findings, playing with what pieces I might want to put together until I get that ""Aha!"" moment when everything comes together, many times not in the way I would have envisioned in the begin"
