Description

My work is an investigation of textiles as a form of process art. Applying universal elements of textile methods, I make recursive objects based on an accumulating gesture or connection. Similar to the act of weaving, pattern and structure are dictated by the rules of the process. Results bear resemblance to the source material; textile motifs emerge from the guiding principles of the grid. I play with the tension between real and implied depth as a means of articulating the subtle interior architecture of the woven plane. I converse in the visual languages of minimalism, geometric abstraction, textile tradition and kitsch handicraft as a means of interrogating the hierarchy of art and craft.
