Artist Statement
In time of confinement, children were secluded at home. Families and communities were unprepared to fill in the time, and neither could they fully understand the impact of confinement in children’s lives, the outcome of which was hours spent with technology.
My series of prints about children started in 2020, but not until 2022 it took the shape of an accordion book called Beloved. The two components of the book are several etchings and dry points accompanied by a series of adjectives, as text.
