"Hustera" (ὑστέρα) is the ancient Greek word for "womb" or "uterus" and is the root of medical terms like "hysterectomy" and the now-outdated concept of "hysteria".

Shaping the pelvis—the center of life force—into an expanded form, I layered it with plastic bags to create ripples of skin. In my work, concerns with human consumption persist; I am conscious of what and how I consume, purchase, and discard, saving and collecting different types of material scrap for future reuse.

I was exploring a conflicted relationship I had with my own body, which originated from my uterus. A prolonged period of agitation and becoming.
