String Theory is an ongoing, emergent practice which speaks to the universe building potential of relationships. Yarn remainders collected from friends and collaborators, are stitched together using a wooden french knitting nancy. String Theory is a thread connecting us through time. A material connection to many relationships which have nourished, inspired, challenged and sustained me over the years.
