See our story or highlight to learn more about Jessie’s work. From Jessie: “I repurpose discarded clothing into abstract art. My intention is to explore my own ideas about how textile waste may affect the environment. By using my own clothes as materials, I am redirecting them out of the waste stream without purchasing new supplies. The work I make is abstract. I use balance to create a structure that incorporates contrast, texture, and color. I leave recognizable parts of the clothing visible to encourage viewers to make a connection with the material.” #APArt #APArtandDesign
