In this post-truth society, words’ meanings have shifted. Singular words can be interpreted in a thousand different nuanced ways. I constructed these words—sometimes singly and sometimes paired—with variable meanings depending on context and inflection, through a variety of textile processes designed to align the metaphorical feeling of the word with the literal feeling of the finished object. I use textiles to make the words concrete, slow and personal, rather than the fleeting, anonymous, and intangible language that dominates contemporary communication.
