This series is called “A Girl’s Life." It wonders aloud about who this "girl" might be and what makes a "girl" in general. The pieces explore the ambiguity of gender and attempt to paint a complicated picture bigger than a binary system of male/female. I make the work using felt making techniques, using wet-felting and needle felting to create familiar objects from a palette of hand-dyed fibers.
