Safety Net

Safety Net

Installation of limited edition knitted squares made for Pockets of Memory solo exhibition, Silkeborg Denmark 2012.

Freeman marks significant time in an autobiographical self-portrait of each of the fifty five years since her birth, ensuring that she has a Safety Net (2011) for each year she has lived; here each tiny daily pocket in the fifty-five carefully calculated squares encases a tiny gold safety pin.
