[ Graft Tapestry]

I started this series in 2022 and it’s an ongoing experiment working with foraged twigs creating work inspired by trees and the beautiful branch structures they construct in nature, exploring the rhythm and the order that exists in the natural world. On a technical level the challenge for me is making the overall design both organic at the micro level and geometric at the macro level as well as balancing the negative space that flows around each twig. All tapestries are medium to large scale with size from 50cm x 50cm. If you would like to discuss whether a piece is available for purchase, or commissioning a new piece, please get in touch. All works come framed, see examples.
