Feminine Transcriptions explores how the body tries to make sense of a fragmented space that is in flux. The collages consist of fragments of sewing patterns, which are used as metaphors for the body as it is constructed by culture, with its predetermined sizes, seams and biases. As metaphors for the body, they operate within the confines of narrow and predetermined parameters. However, the sewing patterns also operate as architectural blueprints that point to a place that is fluid, fragmented and unknown.
