About Threads

What constitutes an authentic portrayal of oneself? Since age fourteen, I have taken a photobooth ID picture every year of my life. In this work, I juxtapose these photos with recent images of artifacts and places that reflect my family history and cultural background. The process of weaving is a central motif, echoing both my matriarchal heritage and my training as an architect. Each thread, chosen carefully and woven with precision, carries the stories of the women who came before me and shape who I am today.
