nuances
That which is in between. Gray areas. Liminal spaces. Looking at the transitions between light and dark, order and disorder, usefulness and waste.
Textiles hold memory – they tell the stories of individuals, cultures and of our consumption and purposes. All of the materials for this body of work were intercepted as an alternative to landfill – the base fabrics, fabric swatch samples, discarded face masks (which I retrieved and sterilized), old clothing even the thread is “expired” and was headed for the trash. I am intrigued by the purpose and beauty that can be found in things that were discarded. In the nuance of the spaces between usefulness and waste.
