Relics Of Healing
RELICS OF HEALING:
An edition of 10 handmade unbound books held within beautiful old tins. These tins contain 13 facsimile prints of artwork from Carpenter’s ‘Relics of Healing’ series paired with handwritten extracts of memories, pocket treasure and lavender from her garden. Each copy comes with a signed print on washi paper.
‘Relics of Healing’ is one chapter from an ongoing series which attempts to visualise the invisible: the complex, fluctuating, individual nature of pain. Exorcising childhood trauma held within my body into the images I make has given me freedom, the space to revisit and celebrate good memories that once were overwhelmed. They are made with love. Here I share them with you.
