Vests

Conceptual garments
This ongoing series of vest sculptures, originally inspired by work uniforms, are manifestations of difficulty. They embody self-doubt, uncertainty, or background thoughts that weigh us down with questions, thwarted progress, and second-guessing. Handwritten words hint at burdens and difficulties, haunting thoughts and actions, barriers real or invented, unrealized expectations. These vests are the embodiment of pain, rather than protection, identity or accessory.
