ON AND ON, 2023

In continuing with jessy Nite’s most recent explorations with textile, the exhibition includes a group of her tapestry pieces made from hand knotted paracord. This series investigates themes of survival, playfully juxtaposing the intended use of the material to the implied meanings of the phrases. Text such as ONLY YOU and ON AND ON touch upon survival in social settings, nature, and relationships.
