progress report





getting it ready for the hand-off. very excited to see how a dancer would interact with/ activate this. its purse, pod, carrying case..is detached and therefore not show. i'm in the process of adding some spots and ruffles influenced by some hybrid lillies a professor at springfield tech. community college was kind enough to show me while i had a show there recently.

in the loose spirit of summer and the timeless need for recycling:
bra with lining, beads, and fish skin



















bra with lining, beads, hair and fabric scraps

fragments






constantly reconfiguring. these are some of the latest exercises. hair and nails. embroidery thread. crocheted border. wood stain. nail polish. beads. misc. found fiber.

take some comfort in peeling back scabs and licking your wounds. the fruit is the sweetest you will ever taste.


the process of becoming and unbecoming can be beautifully gruesome.
