New Work

Environmental responsibility is intimately woven into the fabric of our art. Working exclusively with recycled vintage clothing, we transform countless fragments of materials into intricate, involved textile wall pieces. Sublime blending of color, dramatic use of value, and elaborate embellishment with metallic thread, evokes depth, motion and radiance.

Our work is simultaneously systematic and conceptual, simple and complex — exploring how apparently disparate influences coordinate synergistically, transforming rigid sequential elements into an expansive, abstract, transcendent whole.

Currently we are compelled by the intrigue of repeating and modifying simple geometric designs. Multiple panels interact, one leading to the next, creating conversations which evolve as they are rearranged into different configurations. Each component is stretched and mounted on a frame, allowing multi-panel ensembles to be displayed horizontally or vertically, together or separate, linearly or staggered, square or on point. Expansive designs unfold, creating virtually unlimited possibilities for dynamic installations.
