description: 
This piece embedded with post-it notes from an anxiety map that covered my entire wall is a reminder that I can let go of the worry that I'm too emotional, too honest, or too big because every body has the right to take up as much space as it needs. This feeling of taking up too much space, or simply being too much, is one I've wrestled with for many years. This piece is a symbol of finding comfort, freedom, respect and celebration in the space my body and identity occupies, and ask viewers to do the same for me and for each other. Just because a body takes up more space than the cultural default body mold allows, does not mean it is not worthy of every inch of that space and more. For most, this default body the health, beauty and diet industries sell is not achievable, and this perceived failure leaves so many men and women feeling less than or hating their bodies for their inability to achieve the unachievable. This piece rejects that default body, and celebrates the space, shapes and scars of my fat body. I use the golden remnants of the stress, hatred and pressure I let out in a post-it note frenzy to glorify the stretch marks that decorate my fat body in an attempt to share the freedom of taking up space.
