Softly to Pip

Softly to Pip is a project involving printmaking, illustration, writing, weaving, and embroidery. A series of 9 cyanotypes on cotton provide the basis of the project, containing fictional letters between two women who nearly fall in love in a distant future. The details of the story are filled in through a variety of silkscreen, risograph, and woven ephemera that fill in the gaps of their near romance.

Softly to Pip was installed in Illingworth Kerr Gallery in Calgary, AB in 2019 and as part of The Mirror, The Echo, The Panopticon at Esplanade Arts and Heritage Center in Medicine Hat, AB in 2023

Is Dying Right For You?

Is Dying Right For You is a 126 page book printed on fine papers and bound by hand. Each page was written by hand. Accompanying the book are five 3’ x 5’ needlefelted tapestries depicting landscapes. The book is a stream of consciousness exploration of a fictional theology where the afterlife is based on how the physical body decomposes. The maps depict stylized versions of a selection of afterlives (life, rot, cremation, frozen, and consumption).

Is Dying Right for You? was installed at Parsons New School for Design as a part of the International Salon of Illustration group show in 2016.
