Thread of my body, Thread of my bed

A group textile exhibition, curated by Phoebe Greaves for Unassigned Gallery.

“This exhibition will address the importance of home through the domestic interior of a girl’s bedroom, merging solid realities with an imaginative dreamscape.

Having recently experienced housing instability, I found myself daydreaming about having my bedroom again, a space that could be mine alone. I spent hours browsing through luxurious linens and decorations, creating moodboards and sketches of the private space I was longing for. I grew to appreciate the intimacy of domestic space, and the way that such a space could be curated and cared for, almost taking on a life of its own. 

I aim to extrapolate that idea with this exhibition into a physical manifestation of my “dream space”, equal parts aspirational and surreal, and imbued with the stark intimacy of walking into someone's personal space.”

I was honoured with the opportunity to lend Phoebe a few of my pieces for her debut show Thread of my body, Thread of my bed. My quilted scrap fabric tapestries “Will you play with me?” “Mum, he won’t get off the computer” and “Bittersweet” were showcased among some of my favourite artists, Darcey Burch, Spiraro and Luka Lesosky-hay to name a few.
