ROSEMARY MEZA-DESPLAS
WEBSITE Feminism and ethnicity are referenced in a common material, human hair, employed in my studio practice.
I sew with the first fiber: hair. My sewing can be contextualized within the 1970s women’s craft movement, yet I stitch hair from a drawing-based background. The hair serves as an archive of my body and reflects the aging process. A carrier of DNA, hair symbolizes ethnicity and race. |
