Material Memory Studies – Residency Work

MacDowell Colony, Peterborough, NH

Medium: Fabric, silk thread, photographs, digital images

Concept:

Through two residencies at MacDowell, I investigated familial and material memory by reassembling fragments of my mother’s immigrant experience. Using vintage textiles, photographs, and thread, I created tactile visual narratives tracing loss, rupture, and resilience, translating personal history into a layered, meditative visual language.
