I explained what happened last year and how it affected me to start this research this year. In summery, I offended people due to my lack of knowledge by overstepping a cultural boundary. It was all due to the fact that I hadn't done a complete research on the topic before creating art work about it.

She suggested I use that knowledge to move into this project so I'm not starting from scratch which is a good idea I just need to decide where I ended that project, materialisticly, emotionally, conceptually? How can I use and continue with what I learnt last year?

I think I need to reread my proposal and re centre myself.

I told her It come from a place of displacement and the need to find my place both culturally and physically and this seemed to be a good place to start and work toward.

I need to explain my family, heritage and where everyone is from, how we got here. Examples of how my parents got through (change of country) - religion and mud/earth (pagan). Where me and my family come from. Why we left the country.

She suggested I start through my own perspective and work with my displacement.

Be careful not to offend anyone by what I say or how I say it. The histories are so different.

Have a reason for using the materials - can I use beads without offending. History of beads. Can research but no answer will be found
