g. roslie’s ModScape - ‘calm before the storm’
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-imagined into a modernist abstract textile art 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 both for myself as the maker and you as the viewer.
:calm before the storm - part of a series titled ‘westering: 101-1’ capturing the scenic landscapes & seascapes of the west coast, these ‘framed’ pieces give a sense of looking out a picture window to the immense beauty of the natural world, especially ones that feel ‘untouched’ by the human hand. inspired by the old oak studded hills of the central coastal region, it’s a favorite iconic scenery as you slowly meander up the 101 north. these landscapes speak of timeless enduring presence of nature.
