Episode #9: Jacklyn Downing
In this episode of WTF, The Other F Word, Leslie C. Sotomayor II and Katy Ballard talk with textile artist Jacklyn Downing about wondering, listening, and becoming through creative practice, decolonial thought, community care, and femtorship. Jacklyn reflects on textile art as a way to hold memory, nature, womenā€™s work, rites of passage, written words, and found objects while honoring the seen and unseen labor of women. Together, they explore art as connection, spiritual practice, and identity as an unfolding practice, and the courage it takes to keep learning new language around gender, sexuality, and belonging.
