The Shrimp, 2019
Improvisationally-pieced log cabin blocks with men’s shirts and cotton solids. Long arm quilted by Susan Santistevan. This piece is a reflection on my experience growing up next door to a gay bar, The Little Shrimp, during the HIV/AIDS epidemic of the eighties. The use of bright reds and pinks reflects the vibrant and energetic gay culture, as well as the harrowing reality of HIV/AIDS at the time.
