A second and very different piece from the Brooklyn Museum for #CephalopodWeek:

Jesse Krimes (b. 1982) Blackwater, 2021 Assorted textiles Brooklyn Museum

“To counter the dehumanizing isolation of incarceration, Jesse Krimes works collaboratively with currently and formerly incarcerated individuals to create artworks out of old clothing and textiles that evoke memories of home. The artist developed his own practice while serving a six-year prison sentence. In this work, Krimes regards the tentacled animal as "a panoptic state of surveillance" and alludes to the eugenic and white supremacist ideas embedded in American zoology. The title, Blackwater, refers to a prison in Florida.”

Tenney got a bed!

I’ve been imagining using Molly’s Jenny Lind bed for Tenney for years.

When this beautiful handmade quilt came into my life I thought it would be perfect for her.

I made the stripe pillow from a Kirsten mattress that had been almost totally destroyed. The green pillow came with the quilt.

I feel honored to take care of this quilt for whomever it was originally made for ❤️
