Knoxville, TN
Raeus Jae Cannon is a fiber artist using knitting and pin loom weaving to create one-of-a-kind wearable art and sculpture. Using her mother’s vintage pin-loom to create geometric yet flowing, sometimes whimsical, and colorful designs.
Raeus finds inspiration from many sources: yarns, scenery, art, and even sounds. She begins knitting and weaving pieces and parts without any idea of what the final piece will be; allowing the project to develop while following pictures in her mind.
Raeus describes her process: “Imagine driving down a highway (while wearing a blindfold) when suddenly someone yells ‘make a U-turn now! My projects take regular U-turns.”
