$1,200.00

Memories of times that have long past become snippets of sounds, tastes, and smells. At the center of it all is the matriarch.

In this artwork my matriarch’s clothing—the bata (housedress)—stands for all those memories.

This simple but powerful garment symbolizes family and maternal connections, a longing for home, and a question about how your place in the world looks so different from theirs.

"My great-grandmother carried bags on her head" is made with acrylic and carbon transfer on stretched fabric
