Breathe In (2)

By Kristy Campbell 2018
This set of four works were made over the course of a weekend: in an attempt to self-nurse myself, I tried some art therapy. I laid out some materials that I wouldn't normally associate with my practice, and tried taking a more tactile approach. The finished collages were scanned and worked in to further using Photoshop - where I could manipulate the shapes and text - introducing more complex colouring. Focusing on size, composition, and instinctive writing, I was able to settle my mind on a familiar subject in which I found a sanctuary.
