At Miss Fix It Studio:

Kitchen and Chicken are the two words that I have been working with. These words have a similar pronunciation for international people. I find it very interesting how words can be so similar but have two completely different meanings. I am interested in exploring what it means be learning a new language and how we deal with similarities and differences in words. I am still fascinated with using the shape of the mouth to represent a sound, but I need take a break with my new projects and come back to the image of the mouth later, once I can resolve exactly how it works with my original concept. I am thinking of possibly incorporating the iconic image of the mouth with other elements such as performance and video in the future. Here are pictures of some of the projects I have done so far involving language and the mouth.

Soon you will see the flags that I am doing for Lillstreet. They will have the same idea of the aprons but they will represent: Lillstreet Art Center Chicago. Another project that I am working on is wearable art piece. I am collaborating with artist Katie Waugh (check out her website www.katiewaugh.com). The concept of the dress will be about private spaces and creating ourown universe. There will be circuits and LEDS involved!!!!
