Textures of Moss and Time

Measuring 25 by 16 by 5 inches, this three-dimensional textile piece captures the subtle beauty of natural decay and renewal. A base of soft white wool and silk forms an uneven, tactile surface where patches of green, yellow, and brown fibers emerge like moss and lichen growing over time. Carefully placed slits reveal a warm brown layer beneath, adding depth and contrast that enhances the work’s sculptural presence. The irregular shape and layered textures invite close viewing and touch, evoking the quiet stillness of a weathered forest floor or the roughened bark of a birch tree softened by time. This piece speaks to the gentle passage of nature’s rhythms through tactility and form.
