Artist’s Statement: “Both linen and paper are used here for their ability to appeal to the tactile as well as the visual imagination. The repeated verticals of innocent blue tipped in biting reds called to mind a bittersweet Creole song with the rhythmic, evocative title “Salangadou.” The rhythm inherent in the processing of fiber can impart to art in this medium a musical structure that I seek to emphasize in many of my works in fiber and in paper.” Budget: $1,470
