Indigo Quilt, Pecos New Mexico Photograph

Indigo Quilt, Pecos New Mexico 9 photographs on washi paper, indigo shibori dyed, oil pastel, hand sewn and hand embellished. These photos were all captured at Pecos National Historical Park in New Mexico and the little native animals and plants and birds I embroidered on to it are native to that desert. I also highlighted desert cacti and shadows in gold with oil pastel. Nothing But Flowers, Maine 2022 15 images of flowers printed on washi rice paper, shibori dyed with indigo dye and hand sewn with linen thread Framed in walnut and floated on archival mat with plexi. These project took root during the pandemic lock down. I yearned to explore the outdoors. I sought out nature from Maine to California’s central coast & the ancient Redwoods of Muir Woods. It was fun, beautiful and meditative fo rme to walk in nature and photograph all that beauty. These artworks are photographs of what I saw but also about capturing joy. Images of floating petals in water, deep green algae, crisp fall apples, and sparkling blue waters—are hand-sewn together to tell my stories in the form of quilts. Within this long tradition of quilting and "women's work", I take pride in joining this legacy of story telling through craft and needlework. Woven in each stitch, and every hand-dyed fold, my photographs represent a hopeful future while continuing a rich history of women made art and exploring the boundaries of what is a photograph.
