Description
"Where is my voice?" she wondered, as the words of others spun in whirlwinds in her mind.
"Here it is," she said as she collaged photos and text together, beginning a work of art. At last she caught a glimpse of herself through their words. She knew then that she would have not just a voice, but a life of her own.
This piece is a self portrait I did when I was first beginning recovery in earnest from trauma issues and also finding my way as someone with bipolar (or manic depressive) disorder. Art is one of the ways I not only began to find a way to speak, but found who I might really be (or want to become).
