When I started working on this piece I was living in a very small space.
I spent a year and a half embroidering the text and it became a part of my daily routine. I completed it during my residency at the Headlands Center for the Arts. My studio was the old infirmary and I wanted to connect my own thoughts about illness, and sleep/death with the infirmary site. I found an old cot in the basement and installed the piece on a dark november day with a single light source under the cot.
