Weaving is an organic, metaphorical exercise and a meditation on the nature of life. We are all bound together, interwoven, and interconnected in ways that we overlook in our everyday lives. I see my work as an embodiment of this principle.
My process begins by creating a unique cell, combined in natural and regenerative ways, using readily-available bare materials that I then blend through an organic, meditative, intensive, and lengthy process oriented to shapes and details.
A process that awakens in me a vindication of the human condition in an era of mass production and machine manufacturing. I reclaim the human and social value inherent in “tejer”; to weave the past into the present and toward a future that honors the magic and beauty of interconnectedness.
