Bang Bang II Series Excerpt
GRIEF
Our stories are written on our bodies; an intimate, unique tapestry of our journey. It is stunning in all its forms and an integral aspect of our identities. Risking this vulnerability was essential, as I needed to break out of the inherent shame and stigma surrounding the naked body. There are many paths to healing; I have simply walked one of them, however it is my hope that in sharing my story, others may find the courage to do the same.
