g. roslie’s ModScape series - ‘US-285’

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, abstract/modern design & art.

: US 285 - an abstract modern expression of the powerfully quieting landscape of New Mexico from a photo taken during a fall/winter drive on highway 285 near Taos.


This valley is not ours, nor these mountains,
Nor the names we give them-they belong
They, and this sweep of sun-washed air, Desert and hill and crumbling earth,
To those who have lain here long years
And felt the soak of the sun
Through the red sand and crumbling rock,
Til even their bones were part of the sun-steeped valley;
How many years we know not, nor what names
They gave to antelope, wolf or bison,
To prairie dog or coyote,
To this hill where we stand
Or the moon over your shoulder...
