Goodbye, focuses on my personal experiences of loss and temporality. Using multi-media processes, I was able to explore the depths of these topics, often beginning with the ritual of letterpress. I created a body of work that draws on memories and significant details from my experiences with illness and loss. I aimed to design a space that creates discomfort and unease within the viewer by exposing private, vulnerable moments of my life displayed for public consumption. Focusing and immersing viewers in my grief process allowed them to reflect on their own coping experiences and the processing of individual loss, while it also allowed for discomfort in the act of consuming and witnessing such intimate moments. Using physical signifiers of my identity, my face, hair, fingernails, and blood, I focus on the grotesque use of my body in an attempt to combat the historical female canon of beauty through a bodily representation of vulnerability. This vulnerability is strong and assertive. Within this vulnerability, I am also concerned with the grotesque and how to elevate repulsion to some form of beauty.
