Too Legit To Quilt

Visual Art – Columbus

I've been working with repurposed textiles since 2010, expanding my works from quilts and pillows to detailed textile wall hangings and wearable art in the form of quilted patches. Using repurposed materials is important to me. There is so much waste in the world, so many new things constantly manufactured and tossed out. I aim to use what is already available without continuing to create a demand for new goods. Working with repurposed materials also drives the design and aesthetic of what I create since I am at the mercy of what I can find, challenging me to be creative with what is available.
