I am interested in exploring the ways that memory, history, and playfulness can be conveyed through sculptural textile forms. I currently use quilt squares from the mid 20th century and other found or vintage fabrics to create soft sculpture. The quilt squares were hand pieced together by a stranger decades ago. Some forms begin as brief sketches that I quickly translate into objects. Others become the mode of sketching themselves, like long fabric tubes that can be woven or coiled into many configurations. I display the finished quilted surfaces with seams facing out to evoke past labor. As sculptural forms, these pieces are embodiments of the quilt squares’ haptic memory.
