“when the stars fell from the sky” is a dos-a-dos book project culled from three series about my experience with debilitating grief.

The imagery depicts a visual odyssey through a devastating period when I experienced an unexpected and profound loss, the kind that destroyed my self-assurance and emotional equilibrium. For a period of 860 days, my husband left our family to live with his mistress. Suddenly, I was steeped in a new normal that was abnormal, navigating terrain akin to a rollercoaster ride that I had never stood in line for. I felt isolated and alone. Time became endless, and smothering. Everything seemed impossible.

Consciously reliving this experience to make this work is a profound journey of a harrowing past, a bittersweet act of peeling back layers of pain, and an avenue for solace and communion.
