Fiber Art Collection

Each piece in the fiber art collection is handmade with macrame.  Macrame has clearly made a comeback in the decor world with its beautiful and natural element displaying a unique piece of artwork in ones home or office decor.  Macrame is actually a timeless art with deep spiritual roots.  Between the knots, the untwisting and brushing we can truly find moments of clarity and personal growth.  As a decorative and functional use, it is a symbol for personal growth.   As I make each piece, I incorporate my intentions into each knot, each twist, each brush with personal meaning and power.  Each piece is my vessel for wishes, dreams and a focused mind.  Many of my pieces are untwisted and brushed out which is a timely process exercising patience and seeing each movement as a cause and effect, which can result in knots (not the good kind) and a moment of figuring out how best to fix the mistakes.  In life, we often have consequences for our actions.  My actions when working on a piece have a direct impact on the end result of my piece and also the time it takes to make each one.  For me, it shows that we can all make mistakes, but we have the patience and resilience to figuring out how to fix them and still have the end result we hope for and want...  Often the symbolic meaning of fringes and tassels, which many of my pieces are giant versions of these, is freedom and fluidity.  You can certainly align with that symbolism as you see that in the movement of each of the pieces.  The materials used in macrame retain vibrational qualities that many believe contribute to healing.
