Power Puff with Black Racing Stripe — On View at Express Newark

My Power Puff with Black Racing Stripe Emotional Baggage Cart is currently on view at Express Newark through the end of this month as part of Newark Arts Festival: Pure Joy.

Made from woven New York Post newspaper sleeves on a reclaimed shopping cart, this piece transforms bad news into joyful resistance. It’s about reclaiming heaviness, finding beauty in struggle, and giving ourselves permission to let go.

If you’re in Newark, I invite you to stop by the gallery, take a moment to release whatever emotional baggage you may be carrying. Leave it with the cart. Lighten your load. Make space for joy.

Cordage

Since the beginning of this year, I have been making balls of yarn from recycled textiles and thinking what to make with the cordage…

Stay tuned for next steps. Hint, even bigger balls of recycled yarn.
