Woodblock carving is an ideal medium to engage in nuanced conversations around domestic politics and gendered labor. Carving wood is a physically intensive process where the material carved away leaves no visible trace in the final image; much like the act of tidying a home goes unnoticed since a clean room is devoid of all evidence of a previous mess. Similarly, weaving is a physically taxing process that slowly accumulates to reveal a finished piece only through perseverance and patience. Despite this, fibers have undergone changes in production that create a sense that woven cloth is a cheap disposable material. Through these slow and methodical processes, I create a space for reflection and hopes of resistance.
