OverviewAutoimmune disease. A devastating diagnosis at any age. For a budding young artist barely twenty years old, a defining stroke of cosmic misfortune at the very start of her career. The ensuing decade of hospital visits, medications, surgery, and attempts to control the auto-immune disease with alternative medicine were both difficult and often painful. But the experience was also a crucible for the artist who found herself tested in both body and spirit. Now a well-respected aerialist, writer and textile artist, the author offers both a look into that dark passage, and a message of hope and resilience to her fellow travelers. Spring FREEZE is a hybrid work of art and exploration that combines journal excerpts, photographic essays, and dream analysis. It stands as a testament to courage in the face of chronic pain, and also as a journey of emancipation from the boundaries we too often put on ourselves. Through a series of reflections on social issues and the passing of seasons, recollections of personal events, and an essential connection to the dream world, we are invited to ponder over the essence of human race, its limitless resilience, and the power of the artistic gesture-regardless of its nature-to overcome our obstacles.
