I need a hug
upholstery foam offcuts, various yarns, dimensions vary
2024
Interactive biomorphic soft sculptures made by coiling yarn around foam offcuts. They give a sort of haptic response because of the tension required to sculpt them. “I need a hug” is mostly about the necessity of connection, touch, play, and oddity. Exploring and enjoying these things first through the making of each object, and then again through their encounters with people.
The installation for this piece is variable to start and changes further as people interact with it and each other.
