November 2013
On an eight day trip to Berlin, Germany, I collected dye materials to represent each day of travel. After returning to Baltimore, I stitched images related to each day into socks that I had purchased on the trip and colored the socks with the pigments collected. One sock has this stitching removed (far left) and one sock remains undyed (far right).
