Forager explores the sustainability of using found objects, the accumulation of leftovers, and re-using old artworks to make new work. Invisible labor is applied in the making of these works, as a parallel to the priceless value of womens’ work. The perceived value of the result is incongruous with the labor needed to make the work.
