I have been working with Suit No. 5 since 2020, created initially for a collaborative exhibition in Los Angeles in a DIY project space in Lincoln Heights called My(Space) with Creighton Baxter titled Realigned Possession. The latex rubber parent suit is periodically constellated with drawings and coated with silicone rubber— textured to resemble other-than-human kin. In its life, the suit has taken the shades of floors, lizard skin, salmon, and abalone. In its future, seaweed, sturgeon, and basket patterns are amongst its curiosities; honoring the woven relationships my people have with the other relatives we share the land with. Opening up space to include architectural textures calls into collaboration the disconnection of materials from their sources of origins—the suit included. Its polymer composites, a natural rubber that will age at a similar rate to my own body, accumulates and releases an inorganic silicon-based silicone rubber. One is more sensitive to light and oxygen while the other is more archival stable orients the suit toward a duality of self. The suit is also workable on each side with the possibility to be worn reversible in any state. Suit No. 5 changes form at every stage of its process and was made to release its multilayered skins over the course of my lifetime as an act of reclamation and honoring renewal, growth and the passage of time.
