Gaia

15" x 12" Mixed media with plant roots

Gaia, the Greek goddess of the earth, reminds us that nature provides resources for finding solace, even under the most challenging circumstances. While the earth grounds us (as represented by roots), water also provides a substantial calming effect (as represented by blue and green yarns). This piece honors mother earth’s ratio of land to water, with around 71% of the weaving composed of blue and green yarn and about 23% made up of plant roots. In the face of uncertainty, seek balance through nature.
