From Lint We Built a Home - Interactive Installation Gallery Installed
From Lint We Built a Home was a living installation at the Scarfone Hartley Gallery at the University of Tampa located in Tampa, Florida. The small flames inside each home warmed the moss giving off a comforting aroma of grass and fresh laundry. Lint as material fascinates because it is made up of ourselves, our families, and the cycle of our daily lives. It is literally made up of ourselves and our loved ones, yet discarded without a second thought. But the fabric of our lives flow through the things we do inside our homes, the simplest things we do in each day. This material repurposed as a home forces the viewer to think about the daily ebullitions of our life as being our lives, our homes, and taking nothing for granted.
