Mixed Media Collecting, Assembling, Wrapping and Hand Stitching
Concern for the environment influences my reuse and recycling of materials. Each assemblage is constructed from left over scraps from my previous artworks. Waxed fabric, silk organza, paper, cardboard, scrim, linen thread, and flax are juxtaposed with media not normally associated with textile practice: concrete, tin, slate, lead, found objects and iron rods. Wire is used as a thread. The small scale invites close examination revealing unexpected combinations; flexible / rigid, delicate / coarse, soft / hard, fragile / strong.
