Sallie Findlay - Deer Isle, Maine
Artist Sallie Findlay, Deer Isle, Maine ... I find inspiration in the natural world, especially the liveliness and beauty of Maine islands land and sea. They are ever changing, ebbing and flowing with the tide, the light, and the seasons. As do I. I use Shibori techniques to dye and discharge cloth: bundling, twisting, clamping, tying, wrapping, and bunching cotton, linen, and silk. The resulting patterns and marks tell me their stories, calling up personal dreams and imaginings: topographies, structures, journey lines, and boundaries in imaginary countries, waterways, islands, and shorelines. I then set about defining these visions by hand stitching with cotton or metallic thread, and sometimes by drawing ink lines. The stitching and drawing work asks to go slowly, allowing a meditative rhythm to take hold, transporting me back to the dreams.
