Woven Mandala

My explorations in basketry are inspired by love of architecture and design, travel adventures around the country and abroad, and respect for my cultural heritage. As a lifelong learner, I enjoy experimenting with a wide variety of materials and techniques, the process of weaving energizes me, especially when twining with waxed linen thread. The process is meditative, focused by patience and precision to generate innovative designs. My goal is to create handcrafted art that arouses calm and joyful feelings while being rooted in wisdom from the past and open to the beauty of the present.
