Assorted replica sculptures part of the series titled "Daily Rituals"
“ "Daily Rituals" is a sculpture replica series of everyday objects we as Disabled, Mentally Ill, Chronically Ill, Mad, and Neurodivergent people encounter in our daily lives. Often beautiful objects make it into art spaces, galleries, and museums. Our stories are rarely told and heard. Through sharing our voices and our stories, we elevate these mundane objects and they become a symbol of our experiences, our struggles, and our ups and downs. Life stories become embedded in these objects and they themselves become the beautiful artworks brought into art spaces. We are more than a statistical number, we are human, we are a constellation of experiences. Our stories must be told.”
