"Regarding home as a place that is shaped by our stories and bears witness to our secret lives, I explore ways we are shaped by our homes and the activity within them. It is the place where hidden values and power structures are taught, enacted, and reinforced—where one’s security and safety can turn on a dime. Familiar domestic forms are often blended with cast storm debris and paper flora to imbue these objects of order and comfort with the unpredictability and slow evolution of the natural world.”
— Elizabeth Alexander
