meet me in the woods

The woods is a place of both refuge and uncertainty.

I used three types of silk to differentiate between the transparencies, which, in some cases, when directly layered one over the other, create a shimmering moiré, adding a further ghost-like ambiguity to the image. As the silk moves in response to the viewer, the image is redefined.
Suspended over-size cedar hands invite the visitor to enter. Silk bundles suggestive of lost belongings occupy the floor space. A double layer wall hanging of a cedar and landscape painting add depth to the space. Textile objects I call handbooks, dangle midway between the ceiling and floor, together forming an immersive narrative within the space.

The installation suggests a metamorphosis and transformation: a sense of impermanence where the viewer can wander through, whereby the silks move and the branches seemingly come to life.
