And often a self-destructive process.
This is a rarity for me – a collage with only a few elements.
Inspired by my friend Todd’s awful break-up, and drawing on my own experiences of being dumped as a teenager, I created this collage in the late 1990s.
I think it accurately captures how we often dissect broken relationships trying to work out what went wrong, and where blame lies, even when that process is itself a destructive thing.
