Hi Y’all,

This newsletter is full of invitations, new connections and things inspiring me in the studio at the moment. I hope the read will provide a brief respite as we barrel into the start of a new month. I hope you are safe and well.

Opening Soon: Rising from the Sifted Screen

Rising from the Sifted Screen opens this Monday, Nov. 4th at Wofford College in Spartanburg, South Carolina and is on view through January in the Richardson Family Gallery. The show is rooted in textiles, relationships with land, and material memory and presents my work alongside Lars Shimanukuro and Hellen Ascoli. I hope you will stop by, or even better — join us at the artist panel on Thursday Nov. 14th at 5PM.

You’re Invited: Performance,Power Objects & Papermaking

Tune in for my artist talk hosted by Dieu Donné this Monday, Nov. 4th @ 6:30PM.

In this webinar I will talk through papermaking within the ecosystem of my practice, focusing on bodies of work made during Summer 2023 while teaching ‘Paper, Collage, and the Archive’ at Penland School of Craft and during my recent 2024 Guest Artist in Print Fellowship at The University of Texas at Austin.

Greetings from . . . The Great Dismal Swamp

I am honored to be working with North Carolina based composer, Chelsea Loew for the Ensemble VIM fellowship. The fellowship pairs an artist and composer to make a collaborative work. This project brought us to the Great Dismal Swamp, a long standing origin point in my studio practice. As this work continues to develop, I am eager to share a window into the Swamp during our recent October site visit where I collected lots of milkweed and bald cypress fibers...papermaking in progress! Our work will be presented at the Museum of Contemporary Art Georgia in February 2025, more soon!

Thank you for reading and spending some time with me here.
