de Young Open Call

I am so excited to start off my new blog on my new website with an acceptance to the deYoung Museum's open call for Bay Area artists. The piece that was accepted is a new sewed collage. Using vintage paper from my collection I have curated words and images that demonstrate the pressures that women have faced over the years in terms of beauty standards and proper "lady-like" behavior. The lacy quality of this piece speak to the fragility of these notions and how we are beginning to free ourselves from the web.
