Hi!

You’re quicker at checking websites than I am at updating websites! I’ll have more information about the installation soon. Stay tuned!

AWSS (Autumn-Winter and Spring-Summer) is a series of textile and audio installations built from seasonal fashion predictions, and natural cycles of growth and decay at a logging cut near my home in xwesam/Roberts Creek. It takes me 300+ hours to create the hyperbolic crochet to cover a small set of speakers while home sewing and materials preparation take additional time.

By linking incompatible scales of production, I propose an empathetic connection between human burnout and environmental exhaustion, a blurring between my handwork and leaf-work, and a possible thread of solidarity with the more-than-human world.
