Whiplash: Scripps College Senior Art Exhibition

Ruth Chandler Williamson Gallery, Claremont CA

2025

I presented my year-long undergraduate senior thesis project as part of the 2025 senior art exhibition, Whiplash, alongside eleven other artists across various media. My project examines the concept of ‘home’ through a diasporic and transcultural lens to explore how personal and collective experiences of migration shape our identities. The core material of this piece is the used clothing of my loved ones. By fracturing, reconstructing, and shaping these materials into a wearable textile sculpture, I created a physical object that represents the components of my home and identity – which otherwise do not all exist in the same space. Through video performance, I embodied my sculpture as a living, breathing space that is
alive with my own memories and experiences.
