Introduction | Rudolph Otto in his book The Idea of the Holy says that when someone has an experience of the Holy, they find themselves caught up in two opposite things at the same time: the mysterium tremendum and the mysterium fascinosum, or the scary mystery and the alluring mystery. We both draw back and are pulled forward into a kind of time warp or liminal spaceā¦ if you don't have both, you don't have the true or full experience of the Holy. As a contemporary, narrative fiber and mixed media artist, I work in textiles, and paper using images, symbols and visual metaphor. I express my idea of the holy through art journaling, collage, one-of-a-kind books/journals, altered books, figurative forms and puppets, watercolour, in addition to other mixed media. I love trying new techniques. I love sharing and teaching new techniques even more. |
