Artist Statement: This piece reflects love and pain as only a mother can understand. This work represents a body that is conflicted and confused, yet calm and steady. After the pain of a miscarriage I found release creating art about my experience. This piece is part of a series of large-scale charcoal drawings that showcase the strength of the female body to endure physical pain while remaining strong and standing proudly. When observed closely, the marks of charcoal on the form are painful but faded, as I continue to heal through the pain of the miscarriage.
