This project started as a formal exploration of textile hardener and lace. It was instinctively guided by the creation of a single teacup made out of lace which later on became a tea set of diverse ones scavenged through Providence and the New Orleans area. Two things that I found interesting were the embodiment of an object wrapped or almost suffocated by the lace and the removal or destruction of that object to create a negative and malleable version of itself.
Special thanks to the Preservation Salvage Store in New Orleans.
