A collaboration with my late grandfather. Her tears are comprised of an old film photograph of a hunting trip he took in the 70's.
English Paper Piecing is one of the oldest forms of hand quilting. It is the base for the famed grandmother quilt made of hexagon flowers. It is also a huge source of community for women as they sit in groups to work on their EPP projects and trade fabric hexagons with one another. The process is also physically draining and time consuming, which is why it is often not a solitary practice. I found that stripping the community from such rigorous processes allowed me to push my body and attention span.

Through the vehicle of voyeuristic desire, the artist creates glimpses into a basement world, where her secret activities as a sexual being are on full display. The viewer peers through a velvet window at a velvet woman (the artist) performing a self-gratifying activity involving sexualized self-portraiture. The basement, in this world, serves as an arena for experimentation and secret-holding that the artist requires for uninhibited expression.

‘I expect you to be outgoing, friendly, obedient, smart, and fun.’ came from a message sent to me by a man in a message online.
