Anonymous: The Diary Drawings

This is a series of mixed-media drawings that serve as a meditation on the days of someone whose time has past, having disappeared quietly into the folds of history. Our lives are created slowly, accumulating day by day through events that play out on stages large and small. For us, the movement of time is linear, as we spend our numbered days celebrating the quiet joys and sorrows that bind us to the earth and to one another. In the endless sweep of history, we will each become part of the community of those who came before. The joys and sorrow and the quiet beauty of the forgotten ancestors are folded into time, layered into history.
