Women’s Work

Women’s Work uses found and digitally printed fabric that is sewn together into a collaged patchwork.
The power of fabric in the form of clothing is undeniable. Its ability to shield us as well as give us access into certain settings makes its existence important, attractive, and omnipresent even in the context of nakedness. The dots seen on the digitally printed portions mirror the printer's marks often  found on packs of cigarettes. Man may work from sun to sun; but woman's work is never done. Women’s Work is an ongoing project that I have been making since 2014.

Women’s Work: 
American Sports and the Discovery of Women

We are mysterious because we have been erased and distorted so fully that we are only understood as objects, and currency. In being erased beyond memory we have the ability to be anything, they may call it magic but if you could only remember. This is how we always were.
