I am a Fibers and Textile artist who combines the dichotomy of old and new. Creating comfort in a
new experience through old experiences. Forming and reforming furniture, I use upholstery,
sewing, wrapping and the manipulation of hair and fur to create an item or interactive space. In
my practice I use the repetitive process to connect to compulsive behaviors such as OCD and
anxiety to express race, gender, sexuality and identity. Using the dye process to mark make, I
convey messages through prints and the final form as a wearable on the body.
