Shop Katie & Rebecca's Collaboration!

What’s Left in the Wash is a dialectic musing on what we make and what happens to it afterwards; combining one’s art and detritus found in the marsh, or wash, while reckoning with what eventually happens to everything we make.
In the collaborative process, we came to see things form in the hybrid objects – nets being pulled from the depths filled with life and decay, a ship’s empty hammock conjuring the dreams that took place in it, and a form resembling a Portuguese man o’ war that recalls the wonder of seeing something at a distance on the beach then moving in to examine it. These new objects were created by repurposing and recontextualizing art with what’s left in the wash.
