Excited to finally share some new work!
This is one of the pieces made late last year and part of The Uninvited Project.
“Uninvited, the book, began as a creative collaboration: two living authors and a very ancient text all speaking to one another. Uninvited, the project, continues in the same collaborative spirit by making space for the work of artists in all sorts of media to create in collaboration with the poems, the dialogues that inspired them, and/or each other.”
It was such a gift from o be part of this project and to think deeply about stops and pauses and in between spaces.
“For me, in-between spaces create a sense of slowness, a place to notice things and a structure for moving forward. Traces of past and present slip and overlap through memories. In the in-between, time slippages, glitches, errors, and vulnerability also become part of the equation for possible futures.
The mnemonic feel of woven or discarded cloths are touchstones for this sense of in-between in my practice. Cloth is ubiquitous, strong, vulnerable, and overlooked. The durational and physical aspects of building, untangling, and unravelling threads and cloth are central to my work which also exists in the in-between as I shift between printmaking, alternative photography, and shaft loom weaving, processes which are steeped in history and dependent on physical labour and technique.”
