Stream Through The Earth

Small wall hanging, 13x10in, made from repurposed fabrics collaged together to form an interpretation of the second photo, taken in north Iceland.

I have started making dorodango from soil and clay, and I have found it to be deeply grounding, forcing my mind to slow down and focus on the task at hand. I don't know if I will do anything with them, but the materials are free, the process is meditative, and it is helping me be more mindful when I go for walks as well, as it gives me more to notice around me, observing different soil qualities and characteristics

Current work in progress. Will let it sit for a bit before deciding if I'm done adding layers and am ready to trim and add a back. But I'm happy with how it's looking right now.

Repurposed fabrics include upholstery scraps, neck ties, tablecloths and scarves.

This one was tricky to get the fabric collage foundation the way I wanted it. However once that was done, the thread painting process was very relaxing and enjoyable

I began this quilt with the intention of creating something reminiscent of kintsugi. As it took shape, it increasingly reminded me of the intricate patterns of movement throughout a city.
