“I made this small paper collage late one night in June 2022. I had been making observational drawings of London’s endangered species every day for months in preparation for Come Home Again. I barely left my desk, drawing insects, mammals, fish, birds, amphibians, fungi, and plants from the moment I woke up until I went to sleep. I even started dreaming about them. Redraw the Edges of Your Self marks this awakening at the edges of my hand and mind.”
