Artist Statement Rough Draft

(A letter to my inner child):


Let me comfort you.  Let me build you a place where you can go to escape.  I will build it out of beeswax, the smell of our home.  And I will sew it together, stitch-by-stitch, to show how much I care.  I will illuminate it with light, and maybe, just maybe, it will make the shadows seem less dark.  I will drape it over you, like a warm blanket, so that you may breathe in and out, and feel its warmth.  So please, let me comfort you, in a way only I can.

-Maya Luque
