Gift Economy
"Generation" marks the inception of a fresh series, Gift Economy, delving into emotions, neatly packaged and delivered, whether solicited or not. These structures serve as conduits, emitting gifts of various shapes and patterns, symbolizing different feelings.
Viewing all emotions as valuable offerings, whether initially welcomed or not, I seek to delve into the intersection of emotions, portraying the complexity of human experience.
This collection will encompass prints, sculptures, and quilts alongside a commercial line of enamel pins and flags, fostering a communal exchange where individuals share their moods, potentially passing them on in a reciprocal gesture.
