Dividers

The intimate scale of the objects, modeled on the struc­ture of room dividers—from 10 inches to over 5 feet high—under­lines the idiosyncratic and imprac­tical nature of these items. The pain­tings they’re com­posed of are made of silk, hand-​embroidered, pain­ted and prin­ted, in the spirit of a diary of images.
