Child's Play
‘Child's Play’ at Weston Art Gallery, Cincinnati, OH (December 2025)
Materials: Paper, Fabric, Hula Hoops and Wire
Child’s Play is a site-specific installation that elevates the spontaneous and uninhibited creativity of childhood. By utilizing a visual vocabulary rooted in traditional youth crafts—including paper chains, intricate weaving, pom-poms, and the serrated edges of notebook paper—the work re-imagines "elementary" techniques as sophisticated artistic elements.
While child-led creativity is often marginalized as a mere developmental milestone, this piece asserts its intrinsic value as a source of profound artistic inspiration. Through a vibrant interplay of texture and form, Child’s Play invites the viewer into a space defined by movement, lightheartedness, and the enduring spirit of discovery.
