MAPPING THE AREA SURROUNDING THE PRATT LIBRARY
Last updated February 2024



This piece blends sensory ethnography with printmaking and textiles to chart the area surrounding the Pratt Institute Library.

My exploration of quilting and embroidery stemmed from a need to reconnect with comforting past experiences. Having worked with textiles as a child, assisting my grandmother with her quilt projects, I saw this medium as “just right” and made so much inherent sense.
