    Mom & Dad - Together Again represents the artist's parents, Terri & Abe, their endless love story, and the merging of two previous cardboard series to create a third. The first series uses geometric shapes to represent Abe's stabilizing influence on the family and their marriage of 58+ years. The second series utilizes spiraling tendrils to embody Terri's outgoing and vivacious personality.  Abe died seven years before Terri, in 1997 and in 2002, when Terri passed away, they were Together Again.
     In this third series, Nannette weaves her Mom's open spirals amidst Dad's closed geometric shapes and incorporates herself into the sculpture by tightly winding cardboard yellow strips around linear elements (illustrating a continuing interaction with her parents).
