Thread Shorts
Description: Based on East Asian myth and my favourite Don Bluth film, the Red Thread of Fate connects two individuals meant to be soulmates, even before they are fated to meet. It's unclear to me why I've seen crows associated with red string, I've tried to find their significance, but I do love the imagery. Jeremy from The Secret of NIMH and the crow on the cover of the album "Transatlanticism" are singular and tangled up in red string, which indicates loss or a failure to meet someone to build a nest with. At least the end of The Secret of NIMH is more hopeful, which inspired this piece.

Description: An Indonesian sarong woven in Ikat technique and dyed in indigo. Ikat is a resist dyeing technique by means of binding either the warp or the weft fibres prior to dyeing - or both, in which case it is called 'double ikat'. The patterns achieved with this technique are characteristically 'out of focus'. Ikat weaving is widespread in West Africa, South America and South East Asia.
