IN BETWEEN

inbetween14.jpg

This project is an investigation of my dislocation between two urban spaces; the uncomfortable pull between my current and former home.  Each wall of the passageway is embroidered with the road map of a specific urban space. The careful and delicate medium of embroidery allows me to explore the landscape on an intimate level, reflecting on my experiences in those spaces. The interior, filled with a chaotic web of connecting threads, reflects my physical and psychological back and forth between these two locations. As I struggle to find the connections between these two spaces, the entangling threads begin to pull at the two surfaces, forcing an unnatural topography onto the landscape, and forming a space where the two places live closer to each other than they ever could in reality.
