At its core, the foundation of a weaving is a grid. Through the process, the warp interconnects with the weft and together they create cloth. Math is heavily involved in my weavings. Counting threads helps keep the work geometric and organized. Weaving is technical, but the dye process to achieve such vibrant colors is very unconstrained and free. Color excites me, and weaving allows for new colors to be created by the different strands in the warp and weft. There is something very soothing about weaving. The repetitive nature and the methodical planning leave a lot of room for thinking and reflection when completing work.
