Fray (By a Thread)
Fray (By a Thread)
Photographic woven tapestry, thread
38" x 50" x 6"
Thread cascades from my floral photographs, as if nature itself is unraveling.
In my work, flowers symbolize our humanity, ideas of sacredness, resiliency & hope.
This series explores the term âhanging by a threadâ implying something is in an uncertain state & not likely to survive or succeed.
As our environmental, social & political landscapes continue to divide & fray, the metaphor of a garden, idyllic & beautiful, reflects hope of an optimistic outcome, a return to connectedness & wellbeing.
I combine photography with thread, marrying organic subjects with artificial processes, digital manipulation with handmade â a tension between divine and human nature.
