Reflections on the Study

“Image making is a portal, and it's a way of of entering, which you don't kind of realise that you're entering, so you don't put up the barriers. You can enter quite a murky part of that world, but because It's a safe way of going in, actually, it can be, you know, a very positive thing”

I think really recognising and acknowledging the feelings and then making and creating images out of what I was feeling. I think that process was really what helped deescalate the intensity of the feeling. And then the actual doing of that, taking the pictures, just really kind of not closed it. But there was there was closure to the experiences.

"I think it made me open the box of that memory and really see it from a different perspective now that some time has passed, versus, like, back then. My perspective at the time was like chaos and, you know, a stress response. It was actually me having time to, like, relax and then see that moment for, what it was, versus what I thought it was. What it actually was."
