Letting Go Series

The theme of this series reflects on my lengthy career in the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. It is part of both the pride and shame I felt wearing the scarlet tunic and the realization I needed to leave a career that no longer served me to become who I truly was when the uniform was hung up for the last time. Inspired by Frida Kahlo, Pauline Boty, Barbara Kruger and Louis Bourgeois, choosing titles with double entendre meanings I show how coming face to face with my past has allowed me to propel forward without fear of what lies ahead of me. No matter how much I was emasculated, I am still a survivor. I am a woman after all.
