An autobiography is an obituary in serial form with the last installment missing.

Quentin Crisp

I was trying to write an autobiography using prints and patterns that reference emotional, psychological, and personal development in my work, as a person growing up, figuring out who I was. I used fabrics to stand in for occurrences.
