In these works Domingo explores their personal attachment to the safety pin, its physical manifestation in her everyday clothes, physically holding fabric together in replacement of her “non-existent sewing skills”. The large scale adaptation amplifies this banal yet valued object. The safety pin, an object commonly always apart of the multitude, now through Domingo’s manipulation is an empowerment of the anomaly. Paired with her photography work, Domingo extends this idea of anomaly to her experience growing up in suburbia. Domingo conjuring the new term “SUBURDEN” to explain her experience feeling like an anomaly herself. Domingo in her work sews lines between teen angst, growing up, the everyday, the makeshift and reflection. To her anomaly is a collective necessity and apart of the serendipitous everyday.
