This piece was my very first in the garment inspired sculpture collection. This one is titled, Simplicity. Made from the most fragile old sewing patterns. They were given to me when the local seamstress, Mrs Hasagawa retired. She was in tears at the thought of throwing away the small mountain of papers that held the history of her labors. So I appeared on the scene, liberated the patterns in true scavenger style and then had Mrs Hasagawa over for tea to view the piece. If we only knew then that it started six manic years of garment installations!
