UNC Domestic Integrity Field rug braiding

…in a gallery space at UNC Greenboro where piles of cast-off clothes are slowly being transformed into a rainbow-colorful rug, braided with the help of students (each making their own personal braid which can be finished and absorbed into the spiral rug when they leave) being nourished with my homemade soup of locally sourced produce and nutty spelt bread which I baked down the hall in the faculty kitchen – and when I realize how long it is taking us to make the rug, I decide to change strategies for the Domestic Integrities project, and instead of making a rug (upon which the real project takes place, but more on that later) in each city the project travels, there will only be one rug per continent, which will expand as it moves from city to city, with rings telling the story of regional growth.
