Created for the law office, this piece made of recycled cereal bags (HDPE) and Korean mulberry paper, or Hanji, that have been printed using intaglio (copper plate) and screen techniques. The collage of these, Japanese and found papers was achieved through sewing with silver and transparent threads on a Singer machine in Arkansas.

The imagery evokes female figures of strength marching forward, barbed wire transformed from something limiting and hurtful to emboldened spirit banners hailing beauty and power, doorways as frameworks that provide structure for justice and law.
