cotton warp, wool weft
Artist Statement: I have always been influenced by tapestries from the past, especially those woven in Europe during the Middle Ages, the rich textile tradition from the Andes and the Coptic weavings created in Egypt and surrounding areas. That influence can be seen in my use of pattern and specific weaving techniques employed by those early weavers.
My most recent tapestries reference historical textiles more directly through the incorporation of borrowed patterns, motifs and/or details. The excerpts are combined with each other, and with other image sources, such as drawings or photographs, to produce a layered image in which the different components are merged together into one blended image. The collaged and layered image is created in Photoshop.
