This series of wallhanging constructions are a meditation on process, materials and identity. The work is a look at queering the perceptions of ‘women’s work’ with alternative perspectives of gendered labor, craft, and production. The work is hand crafted with my small Kenmore sewing machine, bobbins of thread, a radial sander, acrylic paint, and finished with a construction grade Linseed and Tung hardening oil. The work is gently worn, the patterns not perfect, the stitching coming apart.  The work expresses a tension between safety and risk, protection and woundedness.
