FIBER FETISHES

An intimate series of hand stitched objects.

ARTIST STATEMENT

The Fiber Fetishes explore the intricate web in/of our reproductive bodies and throughout the natural world. A tangle of coital life, I observe the animate and inanimate—­ovaries, stamens, fertility fetishes, sex toys and contraceptive devices.  I endeavor to meld the endless labyrinth of time and sensual memory through repetitive wrapping and stitching.   Suzanna Scott, 2017
