Jessica McDonald
From a young girl all the way through to my post secondary education, my passion has been in craft.
My reseach-based practice uses textiles to explore the tenuous relationship between memory & place while thinking critically about the connection between gender, craft economies, and traditional domestic roles.
My connection to traditional skills, like weaving & stitching, comes from a place of personal experience. I have always been inspired by the generations of women in my family who have made; either for surivial or for pleasure.
