Mental Load
I wanted this to encompass what my mental load actually looks like. I use post-it notes and stick them to my computer so that I can remember all of my TO-DO’s. I also tend to write things down as I think of them, hence the beginning of a grocery list on the collage within the collage scrap. My studio desk is the stage as a way of showing that my life informs my work. Lastly, the political backdrop of what is at stake in the upcoming election has been on my mind. As soon as I saw Taylor Swift’s endorsement for the Harris/Waltz campaign, I knew that I needed to include  both Kamala and Taylor in the painting. When it comes to issues like women’s reproductive rights, the personal could not be more political in this moment. Vote Blue!
