This piece is part of a series inspired by natural organic shapes such as sea coral, barnacles, seed pods, sea urchins, and fungi. I use traditional crochet techniques to create modern, abstract designs and, although the process is time consuming, it becomes a meditation as I form each part of the project. I made this piece by hand crocheting individual "pods" and "corals" then arranging them on a wooden base. All of my bases are found at secondhand stores so each one is unique and has its own character.
The mostly monochromatic gold color palette is fresh and contemporary. I added a shock of color with small clusters of aqua and white.
This particular wood base is wonderfully thick and heavy with a built in hanger on the back. The long rectangular shape looks very contemporary even though it's from the 1970s!
Much love and many good thoughts go into each piece I make. It is so important to me that my work is original and includes special details - I hope you enjoy it!
