Stuck (wait your turn) by Jo 'Doll' Gomersall

Fabric collage on paper

Artist statement: The piece is part of a larger sketchbook collection exploring feelings of frustration and futility of waiting lists. The journey from needing crisis intervention, having treatment decided and actually receiving that treatment was over four years.

Four years of limbo at the hands of a system bereft of urgency, trapped in administrative process.
