*Wildflower Woven Design*
contemporary textile art
Wildflower Woven Designs celebrates the mindful and time intensive creation of one-of-a-kind finely woven art pieces for home, public and personal adornment.
Aesthetic principles of asymmetry, simplicity and wabi-sabi, fused with whimsical deconstruction in design and process are joyful and identifiable statements within each woven piece.
Each piece begins with a single hand-warped fiber sequence of 100’s of sustainable and often hand-dyed textural threads meticulously threaded and beamed on a multiple harness floor loom. Foot-treadling patterns combined with shuttles of weft advance the hand-manipulated design in a fusion of color and texture.
​
For the thoughtful seeker of fine handcrafted works, this means a wise investment in a completely unique garment of finely woven sustainable materials, handcrafted for a lifetime of adornment.
Sustainable warp and weft fibers include:
linen, silk, bamboo, wool, merino, alpaca, tencel, cotton, hemp and sugarcane.
Other fibers can include: found, recycled, natural, paper, metals and leather.
