The Monomyth

The Monomyth is a series that plays off the Hero's cycle with pieces having to do with loss, growth, love and strength. This work expresses that even at your best or darkest moments, what you will be recognized for won’t be as significant as it might have felt at the time. The feelings we have in those moments are intense and grand, but we can recover and take new directions. In some cases, we may carry those losses with us even beyond when our memory is gone, but those feelings and moments are what connect all of us. Even years after these events have happened, those feelings and moments are deeply rooted in love, which grows beyond us long after we are forgotten.
