- a heap of happiness

“ Perhaps I, too, cannot be content; take all the little things, harvest and gather them to create an enormous heap of happiness. “ - Lawrence Fafard in Letters to Frederik

Fafard thinks that the most beautiful thing about being broken is that in order to get up, you have to rebuild who you are. You get to chose where the pieces need to be replaced. You get to clean, explore and revisit the core of what is you.

Isn’t it great to think that we only deserve to choose who we become if we’ve lost ourselves in the first place?

In this ongoing series, the artist uses collages to pursue this idea that everything becomes a better version of itself after being revisited, reconstructed, manipulated or fixed.
