This artwork is ready to hang from the reverse with a custom inlayed hardware.
Created during Wolff’s residency, the geometric design of this artwork is rooted in the iconography of American quilt patterns; an abstracted pattern and symbol of the visual language, passed down for centuries and across communities linking the past and the future, the personal and the political.

“(Full Circle)” stems out of a series of low-relief wood sculptures created over the past decade that bring iconic American quilt patterns into the realm of sculpture. These pieces are the most monumental of her translations of quilt motifs and are part of her broader practice in which she regularly translates, adapts, and metamorphosizes a lexicon of quilt patterns into unexpected mediums and material outcomes.
