celestial body by mac nicholson

about this exhibition

Celestial Body communicates the spiritual connection between identity and nature through intentional textile processes. Traditional craft is repurposed as a coping mechanism to comfort familial trauma and find acceptance in the nature of one’s queerness. Woven interpretations of natural waterways expand on their healing sustenance properties. Step into the energy of manifestation that is reflected between rapids, cleansing the soul as it washes away.
