My work celebrates the beauty and power of nature, resiliency, and the ominous feeling of the unknown. I create textural textile sculptures that investigate the connection and fissures between humanity and nature through ancestral craft practices of woodworking, weaving, spinning, and botanical dyes. Hand bent wood frames twist and intertwine, coming off the wall and into three dimensional space. The frames then serve as a loom and woven elements create various plains, crevices and pockets of visual interest. My process is largely intuitive and inspired by my materials. I start by bending a strip of wood, listening to how it wants to curve and twist. Then I create texture and interest with upcycled yarns, specialty fibers handspun yarns, and botanically dyed cloth. Reoccurring themes like roots, mushrooms, and flowers speak to the search for nutrients, life cycles, regeneration, and our interconnectedness with the natural world.
