My work is grounded in deep research into historic material practices, rituals of grief and

mourning, women’s labor, and the violence of environmental and gendered commodification. I

work primarily with textile in site-responsive installations, and with deaccessioned religious

books. I consider materials as witness, carriers of historical, ecological, and cultural

information that become subtext in the work.

I am interested in textile as a form that wraps our bodies from cradle to grave, and in the role of

lacemaking in the lives of women historically. Recent projects began with family lace from my

Italian and Irish grandmothers, Emenegilda and Rebecca, and grew to include donations of

lace and linens from around the world. Donations include antique, vintage, and machine-made

lace in animal, vegetable and synthetic fibers, which I hand-dye and sew into shroud-like

tapestries and installations. They are layered with objects of lamentation akin to ex-votos,

reliquaries, and other ritualized forms traditionally offered to saints in request, gratitude, or

devotion. These forms are handmade using plaster, metal, hair and beads.

During the pandemic I began to receive unsolicited donations of lace from friends and

strangers after posting images of the lace work on social media. This has grown into an

ongoing archive and research project on lace patterns and histories. Every piece is

photographed, measured, and collected into an archive before being incorporated into a work.

The offerings of lace are integral to the content of the work, tangible participation from my

growing physically distanced community.

The repurposed bio-degradable materials allow for monumental site-responsive works with a

small ecological footprint. The dye colors are chosen for their long cultural history; ancient,

native, and invasive colors that include oak gall wasp nests, cochineal insects, indigo, and clay.

The dyes are foraged directly or sourced through dye suppliers. Dyestuff is left unfiltered in the

vat and the works are over-dyed multiple times, leaving raw material on the surface. The

femininity of the lace exerts a trace of the history of domestic labor; the visceral dyes retain a

stain of their environmental origins.
