TAPESTRY STUDIO

 

 

 

Statement
I came to tapestry from studying to be a painter. I have that painter’s habit of mixing colors on pallet or directly on a paper, adding layers, keeping them transparent or tangle one over another. I want my colors to vibrate, have dept- sparkle. For the tapestry I always combine several thin threads together to achieve this property. Next to the loom, I keep my yarn in the baskets; organized like pastel box by the color. This is making all of them available and I can pull any of the colors that please me.

My work explores personal insight of storytelling. The Image starts from the first shape and it is connected with the next one and the whole story is growing.  In retelling these stories, I draw from my memory and experience to project the sense of wonder and mystery of the narrative.
