Textile art

Through textiles and texture, the world grows from two dimensions into three. I work with machine knitting, hand knitting, crochet, tufting, pattern printing and sculptural embroidery. Where hand, material and body meet, the works become places to experience up close.

The material reveals what was there all along.
