Was I warm to you?  Don’t think, it’s just a feeling. Our bodies are born as vessels with the capacity to receive and give love, and that love must be wielded with intention and tenderness. 

 

This work follows my exploration of empowering myself to be less precious with my love, while still enacting boundaries that protect me. In doing this, I am figuring out how to take up space in my relationships with confidence. I collaged together journal entries, ephemera, polaroids, and film photographs, relevant to my exploration. I captured the moments that made me feel figuratively warm, where love's presence was rife, unable to be ignored. I sequenced these warm moments together in a non-linear timeline, conveying how love’s presence is abundant everywhere, always.
