I was sick. I was really sick. And on top of that, I was broke. My mental health was failing, and my life in Oregon was collapsing around me. And still I denied it. I lied to myself and told myself that it was nothing. But it wasn't nothing. I wasn't eating. I was starving myself because there was nothing that I could control. I took this photo, and 3 others, in order to take "sexy" pictures for my boyfriend, and finally saw what he had been saying to me all along. That I was sick. That I had really and truly relapsed. Was I beyond reproach? Could I get better? Could I no longer be sick anymore? I wasn't sure. I knew that I didn't want to be sick anymore. But I wasn't sure how to eat anymore. I hope that people can see how frightening eating disorders can be for not just the person struggling with the eating disorder, but for the friends, the family, and the people around the person struggling. I hope that someone can look at this photo and the others, and see that we are not broken. This photo is part of a series of 4 photos depicting my struggle with an eating disorder. Currently unframed, and unprinted. This is a limited edition. 3/4

A former social worker broken by the broken system. I am a self taught award winning artist, former model, and a revolutionary millennial. I quit social work after I realized how much it was taking a toll on my health, and decided to become an artist. Art is so entwined with mental health, politics, pop culture, and toxicity. I figured that I would fit right in. I realized that I could use my platform as an artist, to create meaning, not just in my life, but in other people's lives. Armed with a self deprecating sense of humor, crippling mental health problems, radical idealism, and a disconnection from other humans, I have sought to document and tell stories about the things that I see in the world. Things that are reflected in me, and from my body, as well as everyday life. Help me live a life worth living, by being able to afford living, and doing what I love.
