Hapaska is known for using an exceptionally wide range of materials (including concrete cloth, for example, synthetic fur and various industrial elements) in unpredictable, even incongruous combinations. Not in an arbitrary way, however. All the evidence is that she is extremely interested in and careful about their precise character, the ways they interact and what they imply.
