How do you honor - or materialize - transition, possibility, and the in-between?
“A portal symbolizes a threshold of transition, marking the boundary between the known and the unknown, the physical and the spiritual, or the past and the future. Across mythology, architecture, and spiritual traditions, portals represent both a physical passage and an internal shift in consciousness.”
During my residency in Jamaica, I found myself drawn to the iron gates, windows, and doorways that I crossed in my everyday transit.
Inspired by this, I began a new series dedicated the common, but sacred portals we engage. the ones that welcome us, send us out, protect us, and adorn us.
Beaded and embroidered by hand. By me.
In my new commission offering, I am excited to bring this gift to you, your friends, and family. The opportunity to memorialize the portals, gateways, and thresholds in your life - past, present, and future.
