natural dyed abstract modern contemporary textile art "blue bird" by g roslie
g. roslie’s natural dyed textile 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 for the viewer. this is part of the “ordinary times” series celebrating the extraordinary beauty & fragility of sights, sounds, taste & touch we might witness during the course of what could be called an ordinary day.
blue bird
32.5 h x 15 w” (on 21.25” hardwood hanger)
natural dyed linen, cut & sewn
Hope is the thing with feathers -
That perches in the soul -
And sings the tune without the words -
And never stops - at all -
And sweetest - in the Gale - is heard -
And sore must be the storm -
That could abash the little Bird
That kept so many warm -
I’ve heard it in the chillest land -
And on the strangest Sea -
Yet - never - in Extremity,
It asked a crumb - of me.
-Emily Dickinson

note: please keep all naturally dyed textile away from direct exposure to sunlight or harsh artificial light as well as any excessive moisture or dry air/heat to prevent premature fading & degrading of fabric.
