The drawings are on waste paper from work and explore my memory, beautify the discarded, and generally give me a chance to meditate through drawing.
All of these images, my own included, make me wonder if there is a lash back to the popularizing of textiles and craft by drawing the intricacies of the sewn object. Reading Subversive Stitch, albeit slowly, is a great way to jolt me into remembering my initial connection with fibers and why I chose that as my college major. The creation of these objects, now by choice rather than living up to social status, is a way to subvert the historical definition of feminine.
