"Stories Yet Untold" is made of soap in a hand embroidered bag, the stitches record the spread of a virus and potential of a flattened curve. The curve shifts from one person, then three, then 9, and finally starts to flatten. At the point of the necklace’s completion, the relative success or failure of social isolation and the steps taken to control the virus spread had yet to be seen.
