This mixed-media sculpture is the result of researching the history of weaving and women’s work. While the conception of this piece was pre-pandemic, the concept was amplified during the pandemic. The found, felted objects are weighing down the metal-framed weaving representative of all of the daily repetitions that can be both comforting and dispiriting. The materials in the artwork are a combination of found objects, personal textiles that have been deconstructed and hand-dyed natural fibers. The soft fiber materials are juxtaposed against the more rigid found metal objects.
