This series reinterprets modern counterculture through the nostalgic, comforting lens of traditional handicraft. By recreating the familiar silhouette of a hand-rolled joint in soft, crocheted yarn, I am exploring the intersection of "slow" culture—the deliberate, rhythmic pace of crochet—and the ritualistic nature of herbal leisure.
The transformation from a transient, consumable object into a permanent, soft-sculpture collectible invites the viewer to reconsider the aesthetics of the movement. Each piece features bold, textural elements: the vibrant "burning" cherry, intricate leaf appliqués, and a striped "glass" or "wrap" body that plays with color theory and fiber density.
The "Spark" collection isn't just about the subject matter; it’s about the irony of taking something often associated with fleeting smoke and turning it into something you can hold, squeeze, and keep. These pieces serve as a soft-sculpture tribute to relaxation, designed to bring a pop of humor and a tactile, high-contrast aesthetic to the modern home.
