Who knit you
Developed during a StudioWorks residency at the Tides Institute & Museum of Art in Eastport, Maine, this work is Casey’s first foray into paper-cutting—a technique with a significant place in Jewish traditions of craft and storytelling. The work combines apotropaic motifs from Jewish culture with images and histories gathered in the ex-sardine canning town of Eastport.
The image is a work-in-progress shot, taken after it was completed but not yet mounted.
Who knit you (2023–4). Ink on hand-cut paper. 31” x 22”.
