monumental simplicity

I pinned monumental simplicity to the deck railing yesterday. Right in the center, where the bird feeder usually is. Right where we naturally look out across the bay. It was a mild day. Just a little wind. I love how it feels like I do when I look at the view.

the silhouette of the trees makes it almost a dream scape

i'm constantly amazed at how you take simple and make it complex in an emotional way, without compromising the simplicity

grand with humbleness wrapped in beauty

.
a form of "blood memory" and/or an empathetic experience of self in wind, in-dwell(ing) cloth, escaped outward,into, its own ecstatic "being", weightless again. , almost.

lovely.

Oh my goodness....seeing the landscape through your fabrics that have been coloured by what grows from the land....oh my goodness.
What I am thinking is that when you have your show you need to create a breeze to make the pieces furl and dance.

It reminds of a beautiful tibetan flag floating with the breeze, being a part of nature.
As always, beautiful in its simplicity.
Your previous post on the embroidered work of Anna Torma is wonderful. I enjoyed reading about how her embroidery begins, evolves, a part of her everyday life. Much like your cloths.
