ARTIST STATEMENT

My current work looks to the natural world as a source of inspiration. I’m drawn to the interactions between atmosphere, landscape, light, and color as the foundation for my woven panels. I’m interested in capturing natural occurrences that feel transitory and impermanent whether that is a reflection of sunlight on the water, the shifting of a shadow, or larger environments that have a surreal atmospheric quality.

MATERIALS AND TECHNIQUES

Cotton, linen, and maple bar.

Handwoven with linen and hand dyed cotton.
