Building (All the rooming houses on my street have had their front door removed.) Corrie PetersWinnipeg, MB The Salt Spring National Art Prize (Joan McConnell Award) & Residency Size 72" x 48" x 24" Medium Sewing thread, laser cut on vellum, wood , time. My socially engaged practice can be understood as working to rebuild doors whose removal increases vulnerability and removes dignity. This piece is documentation of that process. It involves time to knit together the small threads that build relationships, questioning what anchors our current systems which require rooming houses (and my role in them), and translating this fragile process back to a gallery.
