"I Beg of You" One & Two
The first two artworks from a new mixed media series.
I wasn’t sure how to release this series as it’s unlike anything I’ve created before. Each piece is entirely unique—not digital files, not even traditional photographic prints. They’re hybrid works, a fusion of multiple mediums, all handmade. Because of that, they take time—some come together in a day or two, others can take a week. There are imperfections, of course, and moments where my perfectionism (annoyingly so) makes its presence known. Considering the labor involved and the fact that the series isn’t fully complete as I write this, I’ve decided to release the works gradually, across multiple newsletters.
Below, you’ll find the first two artworks in the series, each paired with an excerpt from Marguerite Duras' 1959 film Hiroshima Mon Amour. Each artwork, and the series as a whole, is woven around a longer passage from the film which will be shared in its entirety at the end of these initial releases.
“I meet you. I remember you. Who are you?”
“You’re destroying me. You’re good for me.”
Stunning! Every image looks so detailed and labor intensive. Thanks for sharing, inspiring as always.
incredible!
