Artwork Tags:

A sewing machine and hand needles are used to sculpt my colorful abstract, geometric fabric creations. I transform blank cloth with bright dyes and thread using traditional techniques to create innovative, dimensional work. By definition these sculptural, fabric constructions are “quilts” – layers of fabric held together by stitches.

STATEMENT

A sketchbook and sewing machine are used to sculpt my colorful fabric constructions. Bright colors and movement are predominant elements of the repetitive, open grid-like structures. Light and shadow are allowed in and create new patterns and colors. I believe my chosen profession of Landscape Architecture influences my work. Landscapes themselves are constantly changing and evolving, never static. The work reacts to its environment. Viewers can interact with each sculpture; slight movement causes the work to move, changing it ever so slightly. The work is rarely stagnant. By traditional definition these sculptural, fabric constructions can be labeled quilts – layers of fabric held together by stitch. The hand-dyed cotton fabric along with non-traditional quilting materials is used such as wire mesh, grommets, mylar, velcro, metal rods, metal tubing, and wire.
