Here are some pieces I've recently completed. Exploring mutability and relationships using fibers is of interest to me right now. I enjoy the therapeutic and contemplative aspects of knitting and crocheting. Beyond that, their ability to recontextualize my work is worth exploring. Transformation, as it relates to our culture, our bodies, and our objects, has been on my mind a lot lately. I'm very curious about the effects of transformation, and wonder what constant transformation means to our society.
"The sexual body has now been assigned a kind of artificial fate. This fate is transsexuality...of playing with the commutability of the signs of sex...on lack of differentiation between the sexual poles."
Jean Baudrillard, "Transsexuality" The Transparency of Evil, 1990.
