Created in 2022 while travelling through the Kimberley in Western Australia, ‘Hidden Away for Another Day’ began with nothing more than paper and pencils.
When I finished it, I scrunched it into a ball, ready to throw it away. For reasons I couldn’t really explain, I kept it.
Years later, I found it again, but this time, I chose to frame her!
That small decision changed the way I saw the piece. It made me wonder how often we hide, dismiss or discard parts of ourselves simply because we can’t yet see their value.
Sometimes all it takes is a different perspective to make room for a different understanding.
Perhaps what we hide away isn’t meant to be thrown out at all. Maybe it’s simply waiting for another day.
