Exhibition Description

My current research utilizes traditional craft practices such as hand weaving and beadwork to explore the molecular structures that make up larger existences. I am specifically interested in the relationship between containers and barriers found in the natural world (nests, shells, pods, cocoons) and those of human invention (fencing, textiles, baskets, pots, etc.).

This work seeks to reduce forms to their most essential elements. By creating porous and loosely woven structures, I call attention to miniscule details. I consider each detail and its role in the makeup of larger constructs. 

My materials often include wire, beads, hair, wool, and clay as chosen representatives for the physical matter of my lived experiences. Materiality has earned a distinct place in my work as each signifies complex memories, emotions, and relationships. By establishing visual and physical connections between materials and form language, I consider the persistent growth and evolution that humans experience—along with the metaphorical and emotional boundaries that arrive as a result of unique experiences.
