My wall hangings are about colour, shape and contrast while incorporating surface texture with a variety of fabric and thread. I have not restricted myself to reproducing the fish with infinite detail, but have characterized the fish as spontaneous and immediate while cutting, layering and sewing the cloth. I want the viewer to take a “visual swim” through the school as I have.
