Security Blankets
The blankets we wrap ourselves in feel safe. They are comfort keepers, objects we touch every day.
But what if the blankets also tell our stories? Memories we cling to, lies we tell ourselves, relationships that made a permanent mark.
The Forms twist and weave to highlight both tender and complicated moments within the larger picture of relatedness. Knots resembling the basic forms of friendship bracelets express how people, ideas, and entities come together, stay together, wrestle with another, and part from each other.
