Wrap Softly and Tread Softly
Wrap Softly emerges from quiet encounters in the South West forests.
 An exploration of an environment new to me with much to learn about the trees towering above and the leaf litter underfoot.
Merino felted wool the foundation of capturing native plant material through iron soaked printing. The process is meditative from the layering of wool, arrangement of leaves and a collaborative wrapping process. The results only revealed after slow steaming and cooling overnight.
Finally the pleasure of hand stitching to resolve the designs.
A suggestion of warmth, comfort and care.
