The artworks in this series are my accounts of a deaf woman’s experience in a world that constantly pulls her back and forth between two very divergent sides. The images on each panel tell stories about my subjective experiences and in narrating them, I chose images that are easy to recognize and to interpret about my life as a deaf woman and the obstacles I often face in reconciling the worlds of the deaf and the hearing. The themes of unity and balance are also present, and speak to both my affinity with quilt making in both traditional and modern styles and my personal history of constantly changing positions between the deaf and hearing worlds.
