Mussell Memory

IMG_3123.jpeg

Mussel Memory is a fiber-based reflection on the tidal pools of my childhood — small, glistening worlds where my sisters and I would visit, search, and sit in wonder. Crafted from recycled fabric, lace, and yarn, this piece weaves together both material and memory. The textures echo the tangled seaweed, delicate shells, and cool saltwater, while the soft palette and layered stitches recall the quiet joy of discovery along the rocky shore.

By using reclaimed textiles, I aim to honor the past — not just environmentally, but emotionally. Each thread is a gesture of nostalgia and gratitude for those days at the edge of the sea, where time slowed and life shimmered just below the surface. Mussel Memory is both a tactile tribute to nature and a stitched meditation on sisterhood, place, and the fragments we carry forward.
