I have this need to write in order to archive times that feel in flux. When I was young, I used my journals as a way to creatively control my circumstances. I would do this by adapting my handwriting to represent the unfamiliarity in my life. Sometimes I still find my hand wander in new ways across the page.   https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56469fdee4b0e2033a3cfa16/1472869678861-3SU2I1LFKBE9Y1FC5OZA/MariajoseFernandezPlenge_SmallObsession9.jpg Small Obsessions - K.M. // New York City, U.S. Pill 1.

Sometimes I even find myself not wearing a seat belt just so the fabrics on me look absolutely flawless. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56469fdee4b0e2033a3cfa16/1472869518137-L4W9NUV0R0XS78IPSRFA/MariajoseFernandezPlenge_SmallObsession8.jpg Small Obsessions - M.C. // Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. I feel that my life is a little out of my control and aligning the hangers in my closet is a way to compensate for it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56469fdee4b0e2033a3cfa16/1472870208021-0Q6N6NLPZUIOEPWZAJQX/MariajoseFernandezPlenge_SmallObsession10.jpg Small Obsessions - F.L. // Hong Kong I still remember the shoes that gave me this blister. Ecco Mary Janes, I believe. They were too small but for some reason a blister only formed on my right heel. And it's been with me ever since. An 8 year old blister - how sexy! I don't really know why I pick it. It's not a nervous thing, I do it when I'm relaxed and anxious. I guess I find the texture somewhat soothing or comforting. I always have and I think I always will. It's been with me through a lot of formative experiences. Maybe that's why I'm so reluctant to stop picking - it's a part of me. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56469fdee4b0e2033a3cfa16/1472871659276-70RYDRF7HYZ6FFC6HW8G/MariajoseFernandezPlenge_SmallObsession13.jpg Small Obsessions - M.A. // West Riffa, Bahrain.

Throughout the most of my twenties I didn't even know I was depressed. I thought the sad, anxious person I had been, really was just who I was. I started my therapy a few years ago, and it has been a slow but gradual process of recovering who I really could be. Those pills are only chemical in the end, but have been a great help for me in this process to realize that I could, actually, change. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56469fdee4b0e2033a3cfa16/1486412983180-3RCBTPWN522TOKZ5Z2W8/caratula.jpg Small Obsessions https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56469fdee4b0e2033a3cfa16/1486840604736-WB0LKHZ6X6SAMFQW4JSK/12_Paula_Text_Intento2.jpg Small Obsessions - P.L. // Buenos Aires, Argentina It is in a non sensical object where you find unity.

All of the images were recorded at when the sun is about to come out. The viewer can look inside the Corten steel cube through two small holes made for the eyes to watch. It was made with the artist own’s archive at Waikiki mixed with new images at La Herradura and Yuyos, at Lima, Peru. The piece was made in collaboration with Estudio Famas.
