Jeeyon ‘G’ Roslie is a Korean-American textile artist and natural dyer based in Santa Barbara, California. She creates her own, bespoke palette for each work of art by hand dyeing yardages of flax linen with botanical plant and earth mineral pigments. Her compositions are stylized and evocative with simple, contrasting shapes of cut and sewn panels. The imagery of her work is reminiscent of modernist abstraction, the stillness of Zen minimalism, 1970s craft revival and is influenced in part by the artist’s love of poetry and poetic living. She also creates textile collages using remnants allowing for minimal waste in her artistic process. Her work seeks to encourage slow, quiet, contemplative reflection and explores themes of patience, solitude/belonging and being present in the world. Use of all natural, non-toxic materials is important to the artist in an effort to live harmoniously within the environment.
