Ten Thousand Memories of You
Handmade cotton paper from my late wife’s bath towels,
cosmetic jars, lights

Marlenys was a collector. Of toys and notebooks and pens and jars. Things she thought would be useful, she kept.
After she passed away, she left behind her empty cosmetic jars, which for me represent ways in which she chose to care for herself and the processes involved in that care.
I create paper copies of those containers to embody the way she was while she was here and as a response to the number of memories I have of her that become more faded with time.
