Body of Evidence Quilts

HomelessThe "Body of Evidence" series explores the female images. The series explores not only the design image of the female torso but also the way women are viewed in our society. Women are viewed as sex symbols useful for selling product. Lady Liberty inspires patriotism. Guardian Angels are almost always female. Joan of Arc embodies the idea that we can conquer any adversity if we only believe in ourselves enough. Women, hearth and home symbolized true happiness in the '30s, '40s, and '50s. Women and their efforts are often overlooked. They are ignored, physically and mentally abused, and forced into bondage.

Textiles are associated with everyday life, with domesticity and the women's domain. This association of the medium is used to focus on the everyday assumptions of women's roles.
