I have always been fascinated by the tactile nature of textiles and their place in our world as functional items. There isn't one moment of our lives when fabric doesn't play a role. I love weaving precisely because of how tactile it is, and how much time I get to spend touching the yarn while enjoying the colors. Every strand of yarn is carefully threaded into the loom, and every inch of fabric is created by building one thread on the next, interweaving them to create intricate patterns. The art of weaving is considered one of the oldest technologies in the world, and while the fundamental mechanics haven't changed very much, our personal relationship with textiles has changed dramatically in modern times. I hope my work encourages viewers to contemplate the role of textiles in their own lives.
