“In my jackets, I am reporting on some of the daily phenomena that I have witnessed in the natural world around me—butterflies in the mist, the surprising beauty of a spider’s web, light and shadow in a field, the lively round of life and death in the pond.
I start with a line—a piece of thread, and loop it, dye it, layer it into a sculptural form that people can wear. To me that is a satisfactory transformation. Dense layers of stitches describe dramatic moments in the lives of some of the smaller inhabitants of the beautiful world around us”.
