Beneath the Surface explores the intricate connections found in nature through an unexpected combination of felting, weaving, and knotting. Inspired by underground root systems, the composition brings together luxurious chocolate-colored silk, alpaca corespun yarn, and handspun tussar silk to create contrasting textures and organic movement.
Suspended from natural driftwood, the individual elements form a sculptural installation with delicate, root-like strands and richly textured surfaces. Originally created as the signature artwork for the Beneath the Surface exhibition at Cascada PDX in Portland, Oregon, September 2026.
Size: 55" W × 50" H
Materials: Silk fibers, alpaca corespun yarn, handspun tussar silk, and natural fibers
Techniques: Wet felting, weaving, and hand knotting
Mounting: Natural driftwood with leather hanging straps
Availability: Made to order
Available in custom dimensions and color palettes, including warm whites, creams, and lighter neutrals that beautifully emphasize the sculptural textures. Larger configurations can be tailored to residential and hospitality interiors.
