Tenuous
Materials: Wool Yarn, Wood, Nails
A continuous search. Of space, of material, of the body. Of how our bodies feel, react, and engage with space. At the core, I am orienting my self within my work; of how I feel on the inside of my body, how my body feels within space, and trying to connect these two things. Yet inviting the audience in to view. Inviting them to experience these private, intimate, tense, fragile spaces. A redefinition of space through textiles. Weaving buildings, wrapping architecture, making it something wholly new. New lines, new forms, new ways to explore, experience and see space.
