"Stacks of pillows symbolize the safe resting place. Forms on top originated from my fascination of human fetus. By putting fetus like forms on stacks of pillows, I am trying to create the ultimate resting place. At the same time, I intend to create a sense of tension, and remind viewers even the safest place is never permanent."
