“Shibui”, a Japanese term meaning “understated elegance”.
Byzantine mosaics, Islamic tiles, Celtic knots, clouds drifting across the moon, storms passing through, shadows cast by trees, reflections of light on water, rhythmic, repetitive, shifting, and changing. Geometry and geological layers, fractals and Fibonacci proportions, tessellations and patterns, migrating birds and mandalas, golden sunrises, and pink sunsets.
I like to make order/organize accidental marks, whether working with paper or fabric. With no endpoint in mind, I trust intuition to guide me, what can I add, remove, embellish, to complete the composition?
