Flatchestedmama

Amy-Ellen flatchestedmama Trefsger is a conceptual artist with a proclivity for performance, a literalist who loves alliteration, and someone who just can’t help herself from reading self-help books. She made a Public Declaration of Commitment to Her Creative Self in 2004. In conjunction with that, she legally merged her birth name with her artist moniker. The legal name change provides a daily reminder of her intention and adds an element of play to the bureaucracy of life. She’s been holding on to the moniker like a pair of legwarmers from the 80s, patiently waiting for self-deprecating humor to circle back into style.
