A book bound in yearbook signatures and held together with friendship bracelet string; Girlhood is the picture of a version of myself I had long lost. She is a ghost, fragmented and frozen in time. Within the pages are diary entries, distorted images, and poems of loves lost. They are deteriorated, lacking context, and hazy, like a memory. The piece is born of a want for closure and a desire to connect with my former self – someone I have felt so disconnected from, even while I existed in that body.
