Radha : Wisdom of the EarthLoom Series
Radha is handwoven of handspun black and white Lincoln-Romney wool, with madder-dyed lines and lips. Cords of Bolivian round-weave and twining frame her face. The madder-dyed headdress has curling tendrils of smoke, and flames of madder wool. All spinning, dyeing and felting is done by the artist.
The face is articulated in rhythmic lines of handspun alternating colors: madder orange and white, black and white, madder orange and black. The whole design expresses the fire of the spirit, rising on the flames of its devotion.
