NARRATIVE
These panels were designed as decorative objects that draw inspiration from tribal and folk art. In these panels the familiarity of the textured canvas juxtaposed with the bizarre skin like quality of the latex result in textile pieces that at once seem both familiar, tribal and somewhat uncanny.
MATERIALS
