Construction Series
This series, evolving out of the Santa Fe Art Institute Artist Residency, explores themes of labor, manufacturing, instructions, gender roles, and safety. Subverting the practices of architecture and construction with sewing and mending, this queering process questions the practices and reinterprets the products.
