Seaside
Seaside is a circular textile artwork made for wall display. The piece is handmade from thick natural cotton cord, knotted in lines to add movement and depth and to suggest undulating waves. The cord is hand dyed with a blend of dyes and natural pigments, producing a calm earthy palette with a subtle gradient. The cotton fibers at the lower edge are cut to complete the smooth round form. The round shape contrasts with straight lined geometric art and furniture. Mounting brackets hold the work slightly away from the wall. Seven diameters are offered, from 50 to 127 centimeters.
