Before & After

2003 - Mixed Media - 14" x 25"

This is another angry image, demonstrating my rage at how I was beginning to see my young self "before" and "after" the abuse began. My childhood went from "picture perfect" to a mangled, desecrated reflection of what it used to be. It also reflects how I often wonder what kind of person would I have been if I hadn't violated and damaged.
