Fractures in My Structures

Fractures in My Structures was made immediately after Between Earth and Water (Daffodils). Artist, Claire Christerson created this book to be a glimpse of what her journaling practice is like. Without her journals, her other projects would not happen and so she collected thoughts and drawings from 2011-2018 and mashed them up into one book. Her drawing practice began while she was in high school drawing in the backs of classrooms, so it only felt fitting to format the book like a composition notebook. This book was made to be the internal counterpart to the other book which is so external and forward. Christerson finds it extremely important to open her practice up to the parts that are not always comfortable or straight forward. This book is a window into the interior process that the artist goes through to get to the exterior.
