Original Motherhood Badges of Honor are oversized wearable patches made using detailed textile techniques including needle felting, beadwork and elaborate hand embroidery. All names for the Motherhood Badges of Honor were crowdsourced from Artist/Mothers in my online and in-person communities. This series is the latest in a body of work, Topography of Dwelling, which maps my home-place and explores the often invisible landscape of domestic labor, caregiving and motherhood.
All proceeds for the sale of these works supports increased visibility of women in the arts, with an emphasis on artist-mothers. Starting within my own practice and opening into larger arts communities.
