g. roslie’s contemplative abstract modern textile art - ‘seer’

i receive inspiration in many forms whether from a beautiful natural landscape, a poem that confirms or shifts my perspective, a word that resonates deeply or abundant forms of energy that exists in this & other dimensions. wherever the inspiration stems from, this form of textile art is a culmination of many things I love including the process of natural dyeing, textiles, modern/abstract design & art. my aim is to create a sense of peace, calm & contemplative reflection through the work i do both for myself as the maker and you as the viewer.

:seer ~ part of a series exploring the feminine archetype. a special muse arrive in my dreams calling with desire to take form in colors derived from nature... seer was inspired by this poem written by one of our wisest female elders:

"We do not become healers. 
 We came as healers.

We are. 


Some of us are still catching up to what we are.


We do not become storytellers. 
We came as carriers of the stories
we and our ancestors actually lived.

We are. 


Some of us are still catching up to what we are.


We do not become artists. We came as artists.

We are.


Some of us are still catching up to what we are.


We do not become writers.. dancers.. musicians.. helpers.. peacemakers. We came as such.

We are.

Some of us are still catching up to what we are.


We do not learn to love in this sense. 
We came as Love. We are Love.


Some of us are still catching up to who we truly are."

- A Simple Prayer for Remembering the Motherlode by Clarissa Pinkola Estes
