Artist Statement
Weaving offers a transcript for the inescapable cycle of Creation. It is a method that can write a narrative for each organism that serves and fulfils authentic space on Earth. Just as each thread, be it warp or weft, plays a hand in the integrity of the cloth, every species is responsible for maintaining our cohesive ecosystems. The denial of connection and relation between our human species and its biosphere is incessantly compromising the structure of our existence.
As a Weaver, the desire to mend the holes torn throughout the tapestry of humanity feels fated. To contribute to the reconstruction of how we think, interact, and exist with and within Nature, quells the pressure from mortal institutions as we know them.
The Flora and Fauna providing the structure to this body of work are offered a platform to express the stories and Spirit of lives once lived. They orchestrate movement and configuration through their individual boundaries and qualities; tendrils unfurling to emerge as entangled effigies. May they illustrate and illuminate the vital connections and relations allowing us to function and survive amidst the Living World.
