Sheer Yoroke
15"W x 58"H Transparent weaving hand-dyed linen, acrylic support Unlike much of my work where I rely on spontaneity at the loom, this piece resulted from careful planning and measurement. I employed a fan reed to create visual rhythm through controlled warp displacement. Often described as ondulé in Western handweaving literature, the structure aligns with the Japanese textile practice known as yoroke, where the emphasis is on intentional warp misalignment rather than differential shrinkage or elastic contrast. By carefully planning the dyed warp, I created color zones that coincide with the warp displacement. Exhibited at Complexity 2026, sponsored by Complex Weavers |
