"6 Hands in the Mud"

"6 Hands in the Mud" 2012

100 Acres, IMA

Mixed Media

 

 

 

6 Hands in the Mud was a collaborative show held at the 100 Acres at the IMA

in the summer of 2012. Erin Trimble, Ashley Windbigler, and myself set up the

show in the beautiful woods located by the lake near the museum. The show

included prints, sculptures, textiles and mixed media pieces. The clouds remained

dark and grey yet never rained us out. It was a lovely day with a great turn out.

Thank you everyone who came out to see us!

 



"Ritual Residue"

5' x 18'

Silkscreen, Waxed Paper, Red Pepper,

Twine, Fabric, and Found Objects

 

 

 

 

Ritual Residue became a home away from home. A protective circle of crushed

red pepper surrounds a large handmade pillow (filled with herbs). Suspended

above the seat are a collection of hand dyed, waxed, sewn, and printed pouches

filled with objects of use and importance. The installation illustrates isolation and

solitude in the process of crafting objects and collecting memories and materials. 

 

"Rocks in the Water"

Mixed Media

This is an example of my experimentation with paper and prints as containers. Each pouch

is sewn onto the print, housing within them a flat stone gathered by myself.
