  • Process of my Art

The cloth remembers before the artist does.

 I have spent a lifetime gathering fragments—vintage textiles, worn fabrics, handwoven cloth, forgotten treasures—often without knowing why they called to me.


Years later, one piece will suddenly find its home.

What once seemed like collecting now feels more like listening.


Each Stitched Relic begins with a quiet recognition:

the cloth has been carrying the story all along.


I no longer ask, What shall I make?

Instead, I ask, What wishes to become visible?


I follow the cloth, the story, and the unexpected connections that emerge along the way. A fragment becomes a figure. A forgotten fabric finds new purpose. A stitch becomes a gesture.


This is where art becomes story—

and story becomes celebration.


Each piece invites us to look closely, to delight in what emerges, and to remember that even the smallest fragment may be holding something sacred.
