Some would say that migration is one of the most fundamental of human rights. However, we currently live during times where there is political divisiveness and sentiments of anti-immigrant nationalism are high.
•
"I find that when we put ourselves in other people's shoes we become more empathetic of others' plights . . . I chose to replicate people's memories of their homeland using freehand machine embroidery onto canvas to reflect the abrupt and quick decisions that have to be made by many immigrants.
•
"I believe textiles transcend culture, geography, and time and are capable of serving as a unifying impetus in our tumultuous society." ... See MoreSee Less
