Self: Body cocoon 
Body cocoon is a hand knitted, wearable soft sculpture which provokes a range of conflicting responses. Worn, by me, it takes on my form and explores the flexible boundaries between Self and Other, form and formlessness, inside and outside; unworn, empty, situated in my domestic spaces, it investigates private and public spheres, and suggests absence and the abject, . 
​
Hanging, empty, the knitting measures 190 x 38 x 35 cm approx, with the loose threads adding up to 112cm in length.
