"Landscape of potential 1," Quilt, 45" x 55" 2022. You can view this work at STAMPS Gallery in Ann Arbor until July 23.

In conjuring the future I summon a relationship to the multiverse, whether it be cultural or physical, evolving from segregated planes of existence to landscapes of potential. I see this future forming from the recognition of the patterns that keep us from craving difference. —Mother Cyborg
