For Health

100% cotton
handwoven, dyed, and bedazzled

2023
51½“ x 14½“
Text derived from a sheet of daily recitations, probably given to my grandmother by a care worker. The simple and child-like affirmations feel diminuitive for a person who has been alive for 91 years. 

For Health hangs vertically, like a kakejiku. Hand-dyed with care, and bedazzled.

garble is a woven sheet of graph paper. It is sun printed with letters from various writing systems and screen printed with warped characters from the japanese (hiragana) alphabet. The chemicals used in the sun print seep along the horizontal run of cotton and jute fibers.
