ARTIST STATEMENT

Pathway is a response to the sensory experience of wandering at dusk and the feeling of softness that develops in one during such a time. The piece refers to the passage of steps taken through a quiet twilight environment, and a sense of treading sensitively on the ground. Pathway demonstrates a material embodiment of its theme, where a delicate material - velvet, is treated to become strong enough to hold its own form, preserving softness in strength.
