ONE THREAD MANY LOOPS
The encoded materiality of home
This exhibition unpacks a mother's domestic life, which is explored through accumulative, time-consuming, and repetitive crochet and stitching methods. Round and round in circles, one thread many loops, making invisible labour visible are the key elements that encompass the conceptual essence of this body of work. You can read more about the exhibition and find the essay by Dr. Louise R. Mayhew HERE.
