Some of the shame we’ve experienced in our lives are so weak that they fade out of memory over time. However, some things are so strong that they remain clearly in memory no matter how much time passes. And that “shame” remains as a scar in heart.
For someone, it leaves a severe aftereffect that cannot be overcome, and someone can be overcome it and live. But the heartache for shame remains as painful as a burn.
I represented these wounds in red colors, and represented the “Shameful memories” with printing made by bleaching the black fabric.

Wow an incredibly strong quilt
Dynamic ART. The message you have shared is bold and yet restrained in the calmness of the discharge… allowing for a place to rest and think about the pain.
Great representation of shame. Wow!
