ABOUT THE ARTWORK
Felted New Zealand Merino wool and silk fibres, treated with Microseal UV and stain protection. The artwork has been created using individual tufts of hand dyed merino wool fibre - I liken these tufts to brush strokes. These tufts are arranged and layered (4 layers on this work) and then wet felted to bind them together. Silk fibres are used on the surface of the work, their sheen adding detail, depth and definition. It has taken years of practise achieve optimum control of the process and the fibres during the felting process. Fascinated by the three-dimensional landscape beneath our feet, rich with resources, anomalies and surprises, I seek to capture a moment before these secrets are uncovered. Before any action, there is a moment of mental preparation - a moment when all of the possibilities are considered and weighed. This moment of brooding, is fleeting. Once the hidden secrets are laid bare, the mystery is gone and forgotten. Artwork is mounted on a ply support and presented in a white tray frame. For hanging, the beautifully designed frame is supplied with a cord.

New Zealand
I am a contemporary fibre artist residing in New Zealand, creating abstract artworks. Inspired by a fascination with tiny or hidden details, nuances of light and emotion in our physical and spiritual environment, my work is often informed by my background in engineering. Having always been passionate about expressing my creativity, for the last 5 years I have taken a medium that is traditionally “crafted” and developed my own technique and artistic voice. I find the process of painting and sculpting with unspun fibres fascinating with every new piece that I create. There is an alchemy to the process of transforming wisps of fibre into something with form, structure and strength. Feltmaking is an ancient art form which allows the artist to explore a subject in a unique way. Incredibly fragile at the outset of the process, becoming increasingly tactile and physical as the fibres intertwine and lock together. Becoming fascinated with the fragility and beauty of the fibre art in the early stages of the process, I have recently developed a method of creating and capturing unique, ephemeral fibre art works. These I reproduce as fibre art prints.
