$10,000

This is piece is a continuation of the Contaminated Water series. Reflected in this piece is my interpretation of what can happen to the inhabitants of our waters when water is contaminated. Our fish die and the other water inhabitants morph into abnormal creatures. Living in Minnesota and Wisconsin for most of my life, I have seen the effects of pollution on our many water assets. I have also seen the return to clean, useable water from good stewardship and cleaning up of the aquatic environment.
Rust pigmentation on hand dyed fabric sets the tone of the textile artwork. The visual and physical texture created by the dense hand stitching used to create the overall design really makes the piece pop and adds dimension as well as movement to the piece. You can see the intricate hand stitching by viewing the back of the work. This view gives you the full effect of the texture created by the hand stitching. The piece is designed to hang in any orientation as well.

One-of-a-kind original textile artwork signed and dated by the artist. Included with the artwork is a Certificate of Authenticity, Care Instructions, and display slats. Installation simply requires two (2) nails or wall screws.
