A wild Canada goose mother strides through a terrain interwoven with snippets from The Only True Mother Goose Melodies of 1833. These nursery rhymes have been passed along for centuries, and early versions make eye-opening reading today. Along with the familiar silliness and blurred lines between human and animal lives appeared alarming images of violence, cruelty and misfortune. This textile reflects on Mother Goose's wild legacy as we have shaped her over generations.
