"Ritual Residue" 2012

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. 

 

"Peep Hole"

"Peep Hole" 2011
6"x12"

Silkscreen, Waxed and Dyed Mulberry paper, Thread

This piece is the beginning of what would soon become a series of simple shapes 

and forms mixed with printmaking and sewing. In "Peep Hole" the quiet and isolated 

opening gives way to a multilayered silkscreen print almost completely covered by 

the waxed paper.
