I STARTED MOLLY CORRODA AS A RECLAMATION

THROUGH EXPERIMENTAL IDEATION, SIGNATURE TECHNIQUES, AND A DEDICATION TO STORYTELLING, MOLLY CORRODA AIMS TO BRING ATTENTION TO THE SUBTLE AND OVERLOOKED BEAUTY OF THE RUINED AND NEGLECTED. WHEN SOMETHING IS NO LONGER DESIRED, ITS STORY DOESN’T END. IT STILL EXISTS. SO WHAT BECOMES OF IT?

MY GOAL AS AN ARTIST HAS ALWAYS BEEN TO CREATE WORK THAT INSPIRES CONNECTION, EMPATHY, AND SINCERITY. WORK THAT ALLOWS ITS VIEWER TO EMBRACE THE SCARS THEY CARRY. WORK THAT HANDS ITS VIEWER THE COURAGE TO TURN THE SCARRING INTO SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL.

SO WHAT DOES HAPPEN TO SOMETHING THAT IS NO LONGER DESIRED? IT BECOMES SILENT. HIDDEN. STIFLED. ASHAMED. UNLESS IT IS GIVEN PERMISSION TO BE LOUD.

MOLLY CORRODA GREW FROM AN IDEA SPARKED IN DARKNESS AND WILL CONTINUE TO RECLAIM EVERYTHING THAT WAS TAKEN FROM HER. JUST DON’T EXPECT IT TO LOOK THE WAY IT ONCE DID.
