Mujer de la Tierra

Patricia Montoya Donohue P.O. Box 11802 Eugene, Or 97440 541-686-6117 My journey into the world of weaving began in elementary school, where the thrill of weaving colorful holiday paper table placements sparked a lifelong passion. The excitement was never about the celebrations themselves, but rather the joy of choosing materials and watching the creations come to life.. These early experiences continue to inspire my work, which emphasizes the use of natural materials sourced from the rich landscapes of Oregon. In my garden, you'll find a variety of natural materials growing, carefully cultivated for baskets, sculptures, and assemblages. Why I Weave Baskets My Hands. Birds singing as the cedar creaks in my hands. The power of design enfolding within my hands. The strength of the fiber as I weave with my hands. Audio, Visual, Tactile. My Hands. -S.Ishikawa w/ permission
