Lying Down with Fear

$2,000.0

Oils and manipulated photo collage.  This piece unfolded before, during and after Hurricane Helene in Asheville North Carolina.  First the woman reclined, then the bears came visiting again and I recognized my response to them represented my fear, so they made their way in.  During the many days of darkness and absence of all utilities I studied it while lying down in my living room and realized I had become the woman.  Later I chose to add the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains to remind myself why I had moved here.
