The conceptual foundation for this exhibition took root when artist Melissa English Campbell (pictured) recognized an unconscious survival response in herself — a pattern of assimilative imitation, strategic precision and the pursuit of belonging. She learned that this kind of mirroring is an adaptive mechanism commonly shared by many immigrants and their daughters.

As an expression of this experience, each of the handcrafted weavings on view exists in relation to a mirrored counterpart. While images are repeated, each work maintains its own character, allowing the pairings to form larger, more complex images holding similarity and difference in productive tension.
