I am fascinated with the mundane objects that are filled with personal meaning, making them heirlooms. For me, these objects have been mostly clothing worn by loved ones (no surprise for an artist who loves textiles!). A couple of friends gave me other examples to use as inspiration for an ongoing series entitled Mundane Heirlooms.
Contact me if you would like me to create a work inspired by one of your mundane heirlooms! I am happy to consider commissions of this type of work. This could be a digital portrait, a textile design with that object, a quilt…something else?
