I’m deeply honored to share that my work Caribbean Friendship Bracelet has been included in Fiber Forward at The Gallery at Yellow Studio in Cross River, New York.
Fiber Forward brings together women and non-binary artists whose practices challenge and expand traditional ideas around fiber art. The exhibition explores how thread, rope, fabric, and other fibrous materials can hold memory, meaning, experimentation, and conversation.
The exhibition will be on view from May 30 through June 28, 2026, with an Opening Reception on Saturday, May 30 from 4–6pm. An Artist Talk will take place on Saturday, June 27 at 2pm during Upstate Art Weekend.
Included in the exhibition is Caribbean Friendship Bracelet, one of the earliest works from my I Am My Hair series. The piece is constructed from wrapped and embellished rope using recycled sari thread, ribbon, beads, zip ties, and other found materials. Through color, texture, and repetition, the work opens conversations around hair, identity, touch, and the lived experiences of microaggressions.
I’m grateful to be in dialogue with so many thoughtful artists working within fiber, materiality, and storytelling. Thank you to The Gallery at Yellow Studio for including my work in this beautiful exhibition.
