Number five in a series that marks the journey of my mother’s Alzheimer’s. My mom broke her hip in 2005 which accelerated her Alzheimer's and by 2006 most of her speech was gone. I’ll Catch The Words As They Fall was created in the spring of 2006. What little she said, I wanted to catch each word and hold on to them for as long as I could. Some made sense and others I had to piece together. Individually crafted, each letter hanging from the bodice is unique—some with fabric, others with old letters written to my mom from friends in the army. It’s fragile, complex and gives one a sense of barely holding on.
