Abstract

Damon Hill acts as a physical record of the family folklore of a group of people formed by landscape and kinship. As a member of this group, I have translated my familys stories into a visual narrative as a way to process my own identity in relation to our shared identity. The focus of Damon Hill rests primarily on the lives of my female predecessors, as a way for me to contribute their unique voice to the overarching feminine narrative. I incorporate the visual representation of traditionally feminine handicrafts in order to relay their stories through the primary means of creative expression accessible to women throughout history.Advisors/Committee Members: Koptcho, Leslie (chair), Friedman, Leslie (committee member), Kelley, Kelli Scott (committee member), Ware, Carolyn (committee member).
