45 by 75 inches
Voyage is a playful exploration into the human consciousness by addressing the guilt we feel in relation to textile waste. The artwork takes the form of a blanket that is crafted from the artist's preloved clothes, reflecting upon the regret of giving in to the pressure of fashion trends. The work becomes a conscious effort to make amendments for past actions and represents the act of carrying these unpleasant feelings over to our dream-like consciousness – the weight of it all on us, enveloping us in our sleep.
