Lauren DiCioccio: Soft Skills

By assigning human attributes to the inanimate object, it opens us up to having emotional responses to it. We have a similarly strong emotional response to the material of cloth and to the recognition of time, labor, and care found in a hand-sewn object. Cloth is one of the only textures our body touches and feels so intimately twenty-four hours a day. Its specific tactility and ability to provoke an emotional response is extraordinary, and I have found it an extremely effective and rewarding material to use in my art practice. Lauren DiCioccio.
