Maddening Docility

Maddening Docility: an erasure

This tiny object was made last fall while friends from America visited my Shantiniketan studio. I’d been working on a larger project called, The Strange Woman, and had several spare photocopies lying around from the original book for us each to work with. It’s such a simple exercise for group environments; with potential to be deeply healing as subconscious gets a chance to gurgle up to the surface. I find it to also be one of the easiest ways out of a creative slump because the process is so accessible and (im)precious.

in
out
in
your side,
lost
together, and
for you
But
But,
I sometimes have regrets
never wise enough to
remember
never to touch another
