Metamorphosis:
Formation of body, movement & sexualization
The soft sculptural forms celebrate individual sexuality and feminine power. The connection with the soil and the serpentine dance is expressed through the female body and her strength: It is the growth and shedding that is akin to a snake. Snakes shed their skin to remove the parasites. In my work, the layers of the body shed the stigmas attached to a woman. By this sexuality and strength is expressed from the structures I have formed.
I believe we as human beings have a deep and innate connection to our home, the Earth. And there is a part of me that resonates deeply with this bond, and by extension, to the process of collecting used & sourced materials directly from the soil and environment. I imbue my mental self into my work ethic by conceptualizing and manifesting my ideas and beliefs and I imbue my physical self into my work by getting involved in the process of dying, embroidering, embellishing, and sewing.
