“A WOMAN’S PLACE”
The words in this series were inspired by Denice Frohman’s poem “A Woman’s Place”.
The tangled text references a dyslexic tumble that is challenging to untangle.
The red marks are inspired by 1960’s housewifes.
The black marks are inspired by the natural world…Mother nature that keeps surviving.

“my mother doesn’t rely on instruction manuals or men nor does she equater the two can fix anything if you get out of her way”
