'Thread Bare' was a textile based exhibition at B&D Studios, Clayton Street,
Newcastle Upon Tyne.
Working with textiles is my true passion, I love the structure of fabric that is the
warp and weft. I am always trying to create a new type of fabric with what ever i use.
Continuing with temporary looms, I combined natural wool and silk with pieces of broken branches off trees. Bound together with silk thread, creating a warp and weft weaving the thread with the wool to create a tight weave. producing small compositions within the structure of the bark, the middle composition is no more than 2 inches square.
The shadows that form through this piece make it almost 3 dimensional.
