Dream space is a vision created on a warp of organic cotton-linen with a weft of raw silk dyed with cochineal and pomegranate skins.

This piece measures 4.4 meters and has long, intricately knotted net on each end. One end marks the meeting of the previous warp, to this new warp. Below in the photos you can see the details of these markers if time.

A 4 meter length of handwoven fabric, in naturally dyed colors of soft cochineal pink and pomegranate-skin black, is stretched by invisible bodies across a landscape of soft green sagebrush and yellow blooming rabbitbrush, in the background are red cliffs and a stand of aspen trees
