Ostreidae 1
Repurposed linen and cotton curtains, nylon tights, raw cotton, cardboard
Drawing on the oyster’s ability to transform intrusion into protection, this work considers how vulnerability becomes structure. The fabric—once domestic curtains—carries its original function of shelter, now reimagined through layered construction and visible stitching that suggests repair, reinforcement, and endurance.
What begins as exposure is slowly built into strength.
