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".

Red hat babies
It wasn't difficult to see that these images went together. I think what's most important to know is that my alters did this. Out of stacks and stacks of images, when it was time for me to notice the images with the red hats, I did. I received internal messages about some of the meaning once they were put together. It's internal communication in a most inexplicable manner.
