And I would go on to marvel, would fail to grasp the upending before an upending was complete.
A Foreignness, Within and Without is a collection born from threads that began spinning themselves together long before the tapestry was ready for thread. Through the intertwining of poetry and image, this is a reflection on what it means to belong-to others, to oneself, to this Earth, and to the shifting spaces in between. Sometimes transformation is underway before we agree to it, and sometimes an unraveling has to occur before you can, with slow intention, re-stitch.
Peeking through the existential dread to examine motherhood, when to let go and when to hold tighter, and our inescapable belonging to nature, A Foreignness, Within and Without tells the story of a woman shedding and becoming-over and again.
