MOONSHOT

I am concerned with collective fiction and the tenuous ways we rationalize our own identities and orientations. A weaver in many sensibilities, my practice prioritizes material transmutation both on and off the loom, often leveraging the ‘conditional’ properties of a material when met with a catalytic force like water, gravity, or magnetism. I view both the potential energy housed in these interactions and the residues they leave behind as where my work lives. In weaving terms, I would call this space the ‘fell line.’ With deeply rooted archival research drawing upon such varied interests as Major League Baseball, dowsing and divination rituals, and Japanese American incarceration during WWII, the question driving my practice at the moment is: does it matter if something is ‘true,’ if its result is real?
