“Home Is Where The <3 Is”
Statement of Intent-
“Home Is Where The Heart Is,” a loom crossed-stitched with dryer lint, is a feminist piece due to the materials and the girly color pink. Being hinged to the wall, the piece lends itself to be examined by the viewer from the front and the back, seeing the process and the finished product. The piece connects the mother doing the family’s laundry with the mother sitting in the rocking chair cross-stitching with this delicate “thread.” Therefore this heart-warming proverb is a product of her family’s lifestyle and an indirect representation of her family.
