i make pillow diaries for myself and live with them cloesly
the pillow diary helps me hear myself,
and observe the worlds im living inside of.
pillow diaries are a portable resting place .
rest by writing, rest by drawing, or rest by putting
your sleepy head on the big massive book
and fall asleep for a little bit.
it helps me find direction. i feel lost often,
and for me the diary is an orientation tool.
my constant companion,
a home i carry with me wherveer i go.
the pillow diary itself was born during my time of living nomadically.
. between 2023-2025, i chose to live without my own house
for two years i moved through places, exploring ways of meeting my needs without consistant base.
the diary was a place i could always rely on.
id also sleep on it sometimes.
if you’d like a pillow diary to live with, you can request one.
the diaries are hand bound with recycled papers, and the covers are wrapped in hand stitched with found textiles and sometimes my old clothes.
each pillow diary takes between 2 to 5 days to make.
if you want one email me.
