The name Orbital Cycle says a lot about my textile artwork. It reflects the way I work in circular weaving — building forms that move outward, connecting threads the way planets orbit and stars form patterns in the night sky.
Orbital Cycle 4 was created during my residency at the Grand Canyon.
To overcome feeling helpless watching conflicts harm innocent people, I made this vest to express a prayer for the protection of women and children as wars rage
Before you are Looming Objects. Illogically woven and randomly found. Forming a simulacrum of life and death as a random accumulation. Eight vivid hand-loomed nine-inch weavings form the bright side, eight opposing colorless weavings the darkside. Looming Objects includes a dozen Sueñitos (little dreams) — small hanging calaveras (skulls) representing some of the migrant children who died this year crossing the US border.
