Artwork One

Title: Pieces of Me: Connecting my Past and Present Felting

Materials and Techniques: Wet felted merino wool and paper vessel; surface design composite of full and partial felts; silk nuno felts; cyanotyped felts, embroidery

Inspiration: Each side of this wool and paper vessel comprises "pieces of me" - i.e. felts made early in my practice and felts made more recently. Earlier earth-toned organic-rich felts evolved to 3d bumps, silk prints of lichens/fungi, and experiments with paper and cyanotype printing.
