“My work explores not only personal “mending” but also collective repair. I am metaphorically mending not only the fractures in my personal psyche but also repairing a world torn apart. My artwork is my outcry for peace, unity, justice, and compassion.” Today on Maake we talk with New Jersey-based artist Linda Friedman Schmidt @lindafriedmanschmidt about her work with rug-hooking and discarded clothing as a material, intergenerational trauma, and so much more. Full interview online, link in profile! Questions by Andreana Donahue.
