‘ROSEMARY’

Spring 2019 - ongoing

Who Is Rosemary? 

Rosemary is a reflection of myself, where I express my many thoughts and feelings that I encounter daily. These daily feelings are a combination of being both overwhelmed but also being inspired to move forward with life. Life seems very complex with many challenges, and I often doubt my own abilities, my place in the world, what I think is important, how I can make a life for myself and be successful on my own terms. Rosemary is a way to express the fact that I try to motivate and provide positive feedback to myself and others to be able to face all the complexities that are experienced in daily life. These complexities are the result of one’s relationship with oneself, friendships, career and aspirations, on-going mental health journey, combined with the unpredictable nature of the every day. 

This on-going series depicts how Rosemary interacts in her own world. Some key themes are her relationship with nature, kindness, respect, self-motivation, giving, and small reminders to herself. Rosemary is often depicted by herself, conversing with another version of herself, or accompanied with a friend.
