Second Artist Statement

I have been struggling with maintaining my physical and mental health for a long time. As long as I can remember, I have always been sick in some sort of way, my weight fluctuating, and my stress levels were never on an even plane. Recently, I have noticed how these components have actually altered my food consumption and doctors visits in a negative way. Doctors visits have been more frequent and the foods have become destructive to my body.

I have tried to just document the food as I am sitting down to eat it. This gives the story of the day and my choices. These dull meals are repeated at least once a week. The accumulation of imagery shows the passage of time and the overwhelming nature of the process of the reoccurring components

I have created a visual diary of the foods I choose to eat, work, evidence of the doctor visits, and the medications. As I have created the invitation into my world through this visual diary, the documentation has become a coping mechanism to my monotonous health issues.
