Work Together
Work Together consists of three projects rooted in community sourced material.
THINGS I SHOULD HAVE SAID
THINGS I SHOULD HAVE SAID is a filing box of cards, holding anonymous admissions of things someone did not say that they feel they should have. In contributing to this project, these regrets are finally aired and cherished both by the artist in the process of creating the cards, and by the viewer as they thumb through the 100+ responses in the box. This project is still accepting submissions at tinyurl.com/shouldhavesaid.

LOVE IS
LOVE IS, a series of 36 screenprints, displays anonymous descriptions of how someone defines or feels love. In its installation, the viewer may walk along this row, pausing to read intimate conceptions of love and care.
Traveling Journal
This project grew organically out of the senior seminar group after Wellesley College transitioned to remote learning. Longing for a way to remain connected despite our physical distance, we came to the idea of a journal, mailed from one classmate to the next, in which we can share whatever we are thinking about or working on when we receive it. The journal is bound by hand and the covers are made from handmade paper repurposed from a project that was interrupted by the college's closing.
These three pieces embody the contributions of a group of people, without whom the work would not exist.
