A site-responsive installation in the Speed's Gheens Court featuring suspended textile paintings made from sheer, painted, patterned, stained, worn, and recombined fabrics. Commissioned through the museum's Sam Gilliam Visiting Artist Program, the work reimagines painting as an environmental and social form in dialogue with Gilliam's legacy.
