Allegra Samp’s Embroidered Works

I live in my head. My work is an extension of the constant obsessive behavior, overplayed, and overstored memories of my brain. Childhood emblems, favored locations, and the intertwined, winding, flat roads of Los Angeles; my birth place and current residence.

My thoughts are always juxtaposed, something to combat with;

pop-culture and my personal sentimentality,
blue collar versus the wealth of the city,
femininity of thread versus the masculinity of painting.

What’s that statistic about how much of your life is spent in a car if you live in LA ?
