Hold Gently What is in the Palm of Your Hand

This piece is a work in metal textile, with joined cold-formed copper frames – an open hand and a spiral vessel – and looped stitching in copper and fine silver. It is an intimate and personal offering, being molded on my own hand, and carries both a promise and a plea. Ultimately, it is about love and caring, power and empowerment, and about a way of being in the world. It seems appropriate for our times.

I work with metal textiles: looping, twining, crocheting, weaving, coiling and needle tatting copper and silver wires. My work almost always takes the shape of a vessel carrying both form and narrative meaning. My pieces are ways of upcycling my thoughts and my way of being in he world. I'm interested in nature's fragments, women's work, expressing caring relationships, and the changing natural world outside my studio window.
