Karin Jones’s multi-disciplinary practice examines the ways in which historical narratives shape our identities. Freed, her site-specific installation, unites the materiality of cotton garments with their social and political history. Here, Jones places the labour integral to the cotton trade at the center of the narrative. Clouds of raw cotton and Black hair encircle the dress, forming a ‘remembering’ of the brutality, cultural erasure, and loss of life implicated in the creation of such garments.
