This collection began at the end of the summer of 2018 after the death of my grandmother.<\/p>\n
This work engages with the small physical environment that she lived in.<\/p>\n

This collection was made entirely of post-consumer garment waste. This collection is the beginning of a second lifecycle of post-consumer material that would otherwise be discarded. This material is repurposed with pride and is engaged with in ways that elevate it from its pre-conceived use. It is important that designers and consumers alike uphold the quality of materials that they engage with in order to sustain a balanced physical and emotional environment.<\/p>\n
