Hi Maria, Thanks for explaining the connection between the irrational phobias and sexual fetishes. Seeing them on either ends of the spectrum really connects your series and adds a deeper layer of exploration and human psychology to your art.
I love your choice to approach such strange, "unacceptable" topics through such a domestic, tame medium. I like the idea of seeing one of your pieces from afar, thinking it's a domestic, traditional craft and then, upon taking a closer look, realizing what it's truly about. I think this also applies to the aprons (on your site) which appear, at first sight, to be even more domestic.
