There has always been an indescribable need to exhaust material iterations - to challenge the properties of what we know to then celebrate what something can become. My research began with analyzing the obsessions that I have discovered within my creative process - how can I make a finely woven fiber stronger? Why is this so important to me? Am I the fiber? The work explores conflicting sensations through the act of unveiling the intimate relationship I share with the metaphorical power of my material language. Draping for me is like dancing with my hands. A rhythm of make. It allows me to translate how I feel into form. It is a pure reflection of intensity beyond reason that can consume self, by creating so passionately that pain takes the form of pleasure. Protruding from the hip, opening at the chest for air, encasing the body - a visual strength from the inside-out.
