Last Tango in Halifax, 2023
Linen, cotton thread, silk thread, antique lace 18" x 12"
A meditation on love through layering and empty spaces. I wanted to experiment with the holes in the linen to structure the composition, covering some and reinforcing others.

As We See It, 2023

I wanted to experiment with monochromaticity in order to explore rules and convention. I worked around holes in the fabric and added reinforcing stitches to prevent further fraying to represent societal structures and norms.
