Jewish Stories
I come from a family of stitchers and quilters and tailors and dressmakers. My mother made all our clothes and the drapes and slipcovers in our home. I see fabric as a traditional women’s art form, and in many cases, a tool for social change. In my work I depict images of early twentieth century garment workers, whose work as labour organisers has helped build a world where I have the luxury to use fabric as an art form, as I carry on the tradition of social change.
