touch-and-go
University of Colorado at Colorado Spring’s GOCA Gallery
Through UCCS’s F.E.A.R.S. Residency
January 2021

touch-and-go is a collection of contemporary fibers interrogating the evolving notion of "women’s work” in a globalized society. As the title of the exhibition alludes, this body of work is hinged on precarious systems, formally illustrated in the fragility of draping thread and dissolving stitches. Simultaneously temporal and ethereal, touch-and-go is made solely of manipulated and reclaimed textiles that point to the history of women’s work, its labor force, and its manifestation in public and in private spheres.
