This series investigates our absurd relationship to “stuff”, ownership & possession, and our identities as mindless consumers. Each sculpture explores themes and emotions relating to home, the human body, comfort, and security. I utilized found materials that were once intended to create comfort in a home such as old bedsheets, found discarded housewares, and leftover construction materials from a house remodel.

Artist Statement
I use embroidery, found objects, and secondhand textiles to create soft sculptures and installations that explore the invisible themes of labor, time, waste, and gender that are embedded within the fabric of our capitalist society. My process-based practice involves experimentation, play, and manipulation of materials until fully transformed. Through processes involving repetition and multiplication, I create visually stimulating textures, biomorphic forms, and playful color stories that nod to the absurdity of humanity while highlighting patterns, feelings, and moments we collectively experience.
