How magazine images, life photos, and collages helped alters communicate and allowed me to meet insiders. Watching an alter heal through images was one of the blessings of my journey.
Survivor Art Warning
Keep in mind that survivor art is not about beauty. It reveals trauma...sometimes in a subtle way. Sometimes rather graphically. The beauty, to me, is in being a witness to my own healing from the images given to me by formerly traumatized and even suicidal alters.
Please use caution in viewing this site. I'm proud to be sufficiently healed to share this art (most of which was done from 1997 to 2000). All depicted in the images have integrated. This is me when I was "we".

Follow the poodle
This is a "ceremonial" memory I only know through these pictures. You can see how they connected together. Obviously it didn't end well for the dog or the man in the dress. Or was it really a dog that I was made to believe was a man in a dress? How did my system know there would be these poodle pictures over a period of years that would show me a single memory? Always my question.
