I Will Need an Eternity of That, My Darling
Fiber: Hand embroidered text, found polyester quilt top
18 "w x 18"h
2022
I make fiber art, sculpture and conduct socially engaged projects with abandoned textiles centered on themes of labor, connection, and care. I envision a generous art practice that redeems the overlooked domestic landscape, cares for forgotten textiles, and honors the undervalued labors of motherhood. Through site-specific installations and interactive works, I create spaces where these themes manifest through fostered connection and engagement among audiences.
