Cloud Garden No. 1
Tapestry weaving with embroidery — Scottish wool, naturally dyed tussah silk, and silk charmeuse
The first in a series of three, Cloud Garden No. 1 combines modern tapestry weaving with a hand-embroidered inset on a twill base. Richly textural and intuitive, the piece evokes the softness and movement of clouded landscapes through layers of Scottish wools and fibres, accented with tussah silk and silk charmeuse that have been naturally dyed. Each section is built through tactile exploration—intertwining soft twists, dense knots, and fluid stitches—to create a miniature garden of shifting texture and tone.
Hung from a hardwood dowel stained soft white. 7×13”
