Desert



Jacquard and Dobby Wovens / 2016-2018
From Silver City

            A collection of wovens inspired by time spent in the Chihuahan Desert of Southern New Mexico.  Hazy, disorienting, shimmering effects were explored through double weaves, optical patterns, metallic fibers, and varying reed densities. Interspersed are dramatic, lush areas evoking desert blooms and expansive skylines.
