Lives by Omission

This series of works is inspired by the Harper's Magazine article called "Lives by Omission" by J. M. Coetzee: "Are all autobiographies, all life narratives, not fictions, at least in the sense that they are constructions?.....Leaving things out is, I suppose, repression, and the idea seems to be that the bits left out are still there somewhere in the dark recesses of the mind....what we gain in repressing what we do not want to remember we pay for with the subterranean poisoning of other aspects of our lives."
