Our collaborative process...
James and I have been together for over twenty years. While we have remodeled several homes, we never found a visual art project we were both intrigued and inspired by. That is until we began to discussing the various creative outlets society began to explore during the mandatory quarentine period of the COVID Pandemic. It was as we saw family, friends and neighbors begin to stitch, garden, weave and cook that we noticed the theraputic nature of of engageing with the natural world, and saw how our two crative mediums, wood and wool, would depict this connection.

Mending the Soul
Using some of the naturally dyed cheesecloth from the Community Garden 2020 Grant project, I threaded it into the two concave veneer edges. Repeating the cylindrical form of the wood, I secure the various woven cheesecloth threads using couching, a technique I was introduced to through an online slow stitch challenge. The intensional monatone nature of this piece, is to reflect the undefined nature of the known. Contrast is found in the textural juxtaposition between the fiber and the wood while the vivid red stitching is to reflect the life and love that marked each day as we filled our time.

“The juxtaposed materials, that maker action depicted. It feels like the soft hands of humans forging the hard elements of our world into function.”

Welcome to Filling The Void
Filling the Void
Filling the void is a representation of how we kept our hands busy and our minds occupied during the Covid-19 Pandemic. This is a collaborative project between my husband and I using both wood and wool to show these activities.
