Leaves Are Falling
2012
Silk, natural dyes 40" X 136"
I am interested in the past lives of found objects and their interplay with the people who have encountered them. Leaves are Falling imagines a moment in the life of the person who once occupied a handmade pink and purple sweater that I rescued from a second hand shop. In creating a narrative from the sweater, using it as my main tool and instrument for the unearthing of evidence of lives past, I am investigating the relationship between excavator and excavated.
