Daily Weaving
I have long been fascinated with using traditional processes with alternative materials. In 2005 I began making one small weaving every day using only found items. I have continued this daily weaving to this day. During the course of each year themes and issues emerge from the process itself. What began as a personal experience has turned into a metaphor for our everyday lives, both its universality and its consequences on the environment. Overall the pieces speak to an “alternate reality” reflective of the many different ways people perceive the same event and how time alters that perception.
The collection of Daily Weavings is displayed by years.

Healthy Eating: Think outside the food box. Each one comes complete with nutrition facts. Here “facts” are mounted on Red Cross audiotape that, before discarded, trained folks how to keep healthy. The food boxes are rewoven into themselves; an attempt to vary the redundancy of cooking for a family day after day.
