Matterings (2017)

This mural, from the Matterings series, explores what might happen if part of a decorative pattern is disconnected from the building or object it was originally intended to embellish. Forms of ornament considered superfluous in Modernist design and modes of practice that were marginalized through a colonial and gendered gaze provide the main content. The mural is made up of a basic ornamental form that has been adapted and repeated to build a new environment.
