LARGE WEAVINGS
"Metamorphosis"
|
"Metamorphosis" was constructed on a homemade PCV pipe frame, using copper wire warp with copper wire and wool weft. During the time that I created this large weaving I was in a winter studio in Colorado, a happy time spent in the mountains and the snow. However, in the midst of family turmoil I opened a package containing a piece I had worked on earlier in the 1990's, and began to re-examine it. Not unlike the reassessment of family and new family ties that was happening, I began to play with the paper within the work, removing it in a similar way one clears old ideas from the mind. As my relationships grew, so was my older weaving transformed into something new. Size: 7 1/2 feet high by 5 feet wide at top ~
