Some work from my time @parts_laborsatx 💙

This project started with a found image of a hooked rug made in America in the 1870s. These craft projects were made with industrial-produced tin patterns. They became popular as the textile industry industrialized allowing for a rise in factory-made textiles and clothes. This fact that a handmade craft was undergirded by industrialization muddies the supposed purity of craftwork. This also points to the rise of leisure and hobby culture for women with class and racial privilege.

The works all use that initial image of the hooked rug that I transferred and duplicated via rubbing and printing with laser-cut plates. The final image is an embroidered quilt that I’m still working on. The work was installed in the shed studio and backyard. by @adapootter

Feeling very lucky to be in San Antonio! Thank you to @parts_laborsatx for inviting us and providing childcare so I can actually (try) to make art. San Antonio is beautiful and the girls are having a blast.

🪅 @matt_kleberg @lizkleberg @meaghanritchey are the most wonderful, generous hosts!
