This collection of textile portraits expresses a reflection on what I think it means to have a body and a strange yearning that I have to exist outside of a physical entity. The choice to create a sentient textile being exhibits some of my own conclusions about the soft fragility of the body and our own mortality. I’ve spent a lot of time meditating on how breakable physical bodies are in response to sudden loss and grief. This has led me to some abstract imaginings of representation of being. These portraits are made to be gender-less and to instead focus on overall humanity. But mostly these tiny sculptures are a manifestation of a fantasy existence and a dream of an alternate presentation of life, expressing a joyous cohesion of the material world with the essence of spirit.
