Taking formal cues from the warmth and home sewn character of interior domestic spaces, this temporary site specific work reimagines the materiality of the architectural façade as something that is sewn.

The installation was exhibited as part of the exterior group exhibition, Soft Power: Intersections of Belonging and Public Space, on view at The Medium from April 7 - May, 2023 and featuring installations by Cindy Arsaga, Kalyn Barnoski, Danielle Hatch, and Ziba Rajabi.
