Description
Each Moon Milk collage is made from fashion magazines, repurposing and reimagining images into a new, unique image.
This particular piece is an original, but it is not framed. In this piece, I have used images of skin shades in color and red fabric, balancing the lights and darks that represent the Moon Cycle, glued onto handmade cotton paper.
A3 size.
Let me tell the tale
Of a girl who didn’t stop,
Who climbed up every mountain
Without a pause upon the top.
She’d dance until each blade of grass
Was clothed in drops of dew,
And the sun knew her by name
But the silver moon did too.
For a fear had settled in her bones;
A fear of sitting still,
That if you’re not moving forward
It must mean you never will.
So in time her dance got slower
And she looked at all she’d seen,
But found gaps inside the places
That she’d never fully been,
For she was a human doing
Human moving, human seeing,
But she’d never taken time
To simply be a human being.
