Erin M. Riley: Life Looks Like a House For a Few Hours presents large-scale hand-woven tapestries collaging family photos, selfies, and newspaper clippings. Using wool and cotton, Riley renders digital and physical memories to explore personal identity, childhood trauma, and fractured relationships. Monumental works, like Forest, extend into the gallery with hand-woven streamers, mapping a retrospective of survival, memory, and intimate experience.
