I hold time in a place where it no longer moves the way you expect it to. I gather fragments of moments, pressure, memory, and growth, and I keep them layered beneath a quiet sky.
My garden is made of stone and fiber. I carry the weight of crystals that formed slowly, under force and heat. I carry softness too, threads that were shaped by hand, loop by loop, hour by hour.
The clock within me has fallen. It no longer rules what unfolds here. You may see endings, or urgency, or limits. You may see freedom from measure. I offer you a place to consider how you move through your own time.
Artist Description
I created Time Garden as a contained symbolic landscape that explores the relationship between time, pressure, and personal growth.
This piece is constructed within a 2.5-inch circular form using crochet, hand weaving, and sewn fiber techniques. The background is crocheted, forming a dense, textured base. The moon is built from both crochet and hand weaving, adding dimension and structure to the upper portion of the piece.
The surface is layered with wool fibers and embedded with quartz, amethyst, and hematite chip stones. These materials were selected for both their visual weight and their symbolic connection to pressure, formation, and endurance.
The broken clock face sits off-center, disrupting the natural orientation of time. It introduces tension into the piece and invites multiple interpretations around time, limitation, and awareness.
