Summary/Artist Statement
The Letterman collection takes us through the aesthetics of collegiate varsity sport and my personal experience of being a little girl who wears her dad's letter jacket, because she wants to be just like him. As I delve deeper into the world, everything that I thought I knew shifts and severs. Seams and silhouettes reflect memories and nostalgic feelings slipping away. So, I'll put on my dad's jacket like a shield and become a little girl again.
