Coretta's Dream

By Michaela Morgan


I was initially feeling very uninspired. Then I started to break down each word in the quote. Thought about how language has been altered lately and people using/misusing words they cannot define.


Was dusting my bookshelf & my high school 3 book set of dictionary/thesaurus/pocket book of quotations caught my eye.


One of the things I was taught never to do was rip up a book. I cut the definitions to Coretta’s words out of the dictionary & thesaurus. Then I began thumbing through old magazines for other words & images that caught my eye to include.


The words hanging off the page are another small “rebellion” (also my poor spatial planning ).


The only thing I’d add would be a magnifying glass since the words are small. Maybe I’ll figure out a way to work that in later.

Collage on green background with words like "VOTE," "HOPE," "SPIRIT," and "LOVE." Includes cutouts of people and phrases like "HELP" and "DREAM."
