Thank you for accepting me into this group. I started this year with Yoga on the beach. I've reread my works, with edits and tweaks. I noticed my craft was anchored in loss. Im rewiring my brain to find joy without a cost.
Hey Lorenzo Thank you for your warm welcome 🤗 I’ve always had words, and for a long time I had this fear of being too much. I’m being both audibly and visually dyslexic, I’d struggled to arrange them in a way that other people can understand. For example, I saw simple Conversations in words on bricks Having to rearrange them so I could understand what they were talking about. Meaning j was always two minutes behind a conversation. A couple of years ago, I did the Peter Davis course, in which you make letters out of clay. The idea around the program is giving an imagery to individual letters. Through this I’ve learnt how to fit all the pieces together. I think for me, the biggest breakthrough was Being diagnosed with both ADHD and bipolar. The medication for this has changed my world I met a someone who made such a pivotal impact on my life, they forced me into taking a serious look in my idea around my worth and people pleasing. I’ve been sharing and posting since last September. Fuelled by my first ever serious heartbreak. Through writing i’ve been able to process things that I historically wouldn’t have been brave enough to look at. Ideally and something I want to work towards is editing. Helping to craft a piece while keeping the integrity of the work alive. That was a mouthful😂 But I really appreciate, being able to share this side of me that I have kept it in for so long time… Self preservation. I do look forward to sharing some more pieces And learning in a creative supportive environment
