g. roslie’s ModScape series - ‘indigo ridge’

each one-of-a-kind ModScape textile art is conceived as a visual experience of a natural landscape found wandering the earth, memorized in the mind’s eye or by photograph & re-created in a minimalist, modern abstract fashion onto a textile art form combining my love of natural places, natural dyeing, textiles, modern design & art. my aim is to create a sense of peace, calm & contemplative reflection through the work i do for both myself and the viewer.

: indigo ridge - an abstract modern expression of a view of the multi layered blue hued mountains viewed from brainard lake recreation area near ward, colorado & the poem that resonates perfectly with this landscape:

STILL and calm, 

In purple robes of kings, 

The low-lying mountains sleep at the edge of the world. 

The forests cover them like mantles; 

Day and night 

Rise and fall over them like the wash of waves. 

Asleep, they reign. 

Silent, they say all. 

Hush me, O slumbering mountains — 

Send me dreams.

~Harriet Monroe
