Falling and
Laughing
I jump to remember my childhood
innocence, past memories of being overexcited, flinging my body into the air.
I have always loved the idea that your
feet have to leave the ground in order to express your feelings. In contrast,
when you’re having a tantrum, you throw your body on the ground, and don’t get
up until everything is fixed.
Remember how brave you felt climbing
to the top of a tree? But when you came crashing down, it was almost impossible
to get back up.
These images are based on
my childhood memories and a period of dissociation that I experienced when I
was eighteen.
