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.
