In weaving, the warp is the vertical plane of resistance beckoning and challenging as does the blank canvas, the empty page, and the sculptor’s block. The weft is the horizontal element, the expressive potential in the hand of the artist. The woven thread carries the progress of time, knots tied in the past, dyed in the present, and the calligraphic line of future possibilities.
Fiber has memory and tells a story of its own as well as that of our collective tactile experience. Skilled and vigorous, each thread builds to construct a textile membrane of subtle energy, surprising as it emerges from the implicit grid of the loom.
