Maternally Yours, 2024



The weight distributes how this work takes its form.
Gravity curates this piece.
Ever moving, wriggling, sliding, titling from side to side, stray pieces break out of its uniformity.
The nature of handling this work reminded me of holding a new born baby. Finding a comfortable swaddling position became the goal with this piece.
I was looking to create a comfort, where its weight sat with ease and comfort.
This work was about finding a balance, an ease, without feeling its restraints.
Maternally yours, 2024
