“Be too much”

BE TOO MUCH is a body of work that explores the power of sensitivity through the juxtaposition of words, both literal and abstract. When I was younger, I buried my compassion and femininity beneath layers of rage. I never allowed myself to feel emotions in their entirety. As I grew older, empathy has reintroduced me to my femininity. As Kamala Harris said, “There are a whole lot of women who are not aspiring to be humble.” Through this, I embrace my power to feel emotions fully and loudly. I acknowledge that others might never understand how deeply I feel, but I will not allow this to make me feel smaller. How I feel is never too much and that will always be true. Through this collection I want to highlight that feeling “too much” and taking up space is okay.
