Handy Mandy

'All collecting was marked by curiosity'

2024

Metal armateur, fabric, stuffing, acrylic sheets, mirror

This project explored my enjoyment of collecting object from a different perspective, what if I was the object being collected?

I explored looming angles, scale and material to end up making 'Handy Mandy,' a meter tall soft sculpture. Installed with a convex mirror, the viewer leans over to be scooped up by the sculpture. Another addition to her collection.
