Item description
Various repurposed fabrics made into bundles and pictured hanging from the ceiling above a doorway. The bundles are in many shapes, sizes and vivid colors. Some of them have been made into pouches, formed into balls, or turned into other organic shapes and structures. All of the bundles have a longer piece of fabric at the top so they can dangle from the ceiling.

SOUVENIR 2

Repurposed fabric and found materials. - As an immigrant and student I barely had anything material to bequeath to my child and then Covid hit. Realizing that I may not even be around to tell him who he is and who were his parents, given that we have no family in the US, I ventured on a philosophical journey of collecting, recreating and preserving all my happy memories, wisdom, knowledge and creative skills in the form of bundles and hung them from ceiling to preserve them for my (son's) future. Bundling is an act of preserving and hanging anything from ceiling has been a long practice of safe-keeping precious things from rodents, nature and unwanted human & pests. This installation has been shown at Laumeier Sculpture Park as a 15x17x5 feet outdoor installation in 2022 and at Angad Arts Hotel in 2021.
