The concepts, imagery, and materials of my work are informed by infrastructure, which encompasses the act of supporting, the undergirding for creation, and the workforce maintaining our unsustainable global practices. The objects I make embody the reality that systemic forces are driven by economic and social incentives in power structures that perniciously guide our decisions and interpretations. The intersecting histories and consequences of omnipresent apparatuses—from taxation to electrical grids to the maintenance of “racecraft” (Fields and Fields)—are foundational to the tapestry of human existence. I employ sewing and textiles to interweave the effects of entrenched systems on the body, the delicate, the intimate.
