Kleinrock constructs, stuffs, and quilts canvas structures that become as the base of her paintings. These quilted works are reminiscent of the fabric objects that surround us in our homes—objects that witness change and the passage of time. Her work pulls from photographs and experiences, collected and pieced together as a quilter collects and reshapes fabric scraps. She honors the historical roots of quilting as a woman-led domestic art form, blending personal experiences with broader cultural histories.

Using the fragmented nature of the quilted material to combine abstracted shapes and recognizable forms, Kleinrock often draws on stills from life, memory, and imagination. When viewed as a whole, the sections tell stories free of linear narrative, simultaneously depicting moments of growth and decay, chaos and calm and the weaving together of a picture that evokes our entangled influence on nature through the cyclical passage of time.
