synopsis:
Using cheap materials that can be found around the home, I
create a chaotic compilation of recognizable objects with a twist that
I sew onto a colorful tent . The resulting work is filled with an
explosion of colors – a carnival of images that slide across the home
in a playful, evocative manner.
