As For Me

The form is based on a boxing robe with gloves. Punching through the fear that has gripped the world, reminding us to embrace our mud-walled home. House of humble clay, this planet Earth. Poetry is printed directly on news from around the world.

Boxing gloves complete the robe, made from shards of work produced from the Worn World garments. Each is encrusted with powerful actions:  empathy, justice, diversity, compassion, truth, trust, science, facts, freedom, kindness. 2019
