Echos of a Slot Canyon

Echos of a Slot Canyon

I made this piece to reflect the feelings of looking at and into a slot canyon.  For the sunbaked stone walls, I painted Tyvek and appliquéd rusty red colored yarns to bring the textures found therein.  The sound vibrations, the amazing solitude and the feeling of sanctuary all bring the impact of these amazing places right to our consciousness. 40" x 40".

Kaleidoscopic Ventures

Kaleidoscopic Ventures

I laid swirled up fabric on the bed of my copier, and made photocopies..  After making 4 copies, I mirror imaged them and made 4 more. I then laminated them to foam core board, backed them with velcro and mounted them to an acrylic form cut into a kimono shape.  The pieces can be moved into numerous arrangements and every move totally changes the overall image.  It is like making your own kaleidoscope.  34" x 44"

Far Above Rubies

Far Above Rubies


In "Far Above Rubies",  I was moved to make a statement about the treatment of women after reading a newspaper article about a Houston plastic surgeon who had restored a woman's face as well as he could after her husband had mutilated her.  I dedicated it to all abused women everywhere.  As the theme developed, I chose Proverbs 31:10-31 as the description of the ideal woman in the Bible.  She was, as it turns out, a very strong business woman and a fiber artist of the first order.

Her husband cherished her as did her family and employees.  We should all be treated with the dignity and honor this woman enjoyed in her days.

To symbolize the contrast between the way women should be and are, indeed, treated by their families and their culture, and the women we find are degraded by individuals and society, I used the kimono as the symbol of woman and sewed every other one to the front of the silk and every other one to the back of it.  The women in the front  have positive verbs written beside them, i.e., "adored".  The women on the back, that we have to view a little more closely, have negative verbs beside them, i.e. "abused".   They are the ones we see but not their treatment behind the veil or the closed door.

Each of the kimonos is a photocopy on silk (with freezer paper ironed onto the back for stability) of dyed and marbled pieces I had done earlier.  I wrote the passage from Proverbs in horizontal lines between the rows of kimonos.
