Mima Preston

I completed the Textile Arts Program at Capilano College in 2000. I then transferred to the Studio Arts Program at Capilano College. I am currently completing my BFA at Emily Carr College of Art and Design in Vancouver.Over the past few summer I have been working as designer for theater. This has influenced my sculptural work as it has encouraged me to play with performance as a medium.

Title: Tools
Materials: The tools function as a visual record of lost knowledge, each piece being a mold of foundry parts. The pieces then lead into discussions around the functionality of objects and their inadequacy in this felted form.
