Scrap Notes
ink on scrap paper and sticky notes
The ongoing series “Scrap Notes” is an autobiographical comic exploration of navigating life as a queer femme with mental illness. In our society there are illnesses divided by public perceptions of “safe” and “dangerous”. While any illness is a cross to bear, one that comes with social stigma puts an individual against so many more odds. Each sticky note I write affirms my experience, my existence, as real and valid. In addition to helping me process my own experiences with mental illness, I hope one day they can also remind others they are not alone.
