The Fabric of Energy explores universal connections through torus shapes, donut-like forms, that visualize how energy flows between all living things.
During my residency at MAD (August 2025–August 2026), I'm collecting hair donations for one sculpture in The Fabric of Energy series. Your contribution will be woven together with others to create a sculpture about interconnectedness.
Donated hair needs to be 3-4 inches (7-10 cm) minimum. I need at least 10 strands from brushing, combing, or cutting (if it’s time for a haircut). Collecting hair from the drain is not recommended.
