Weaving Series

Joseph's Coat (2002)

Oil-based mixed media, 76 x 56 cm (CCH0060)

In developing my weaving series, I was drawn to mythology and literary narratives involving tapestries and noticed how extensively weaving has been used as a metaphorical vehicle. The figure of Joseph appears in the Bible, Torah and Quran. The Biblical scriptures elaborates on the “many-coloured coat” that his father Jacob made for him. Joseph’s coat was an icon and motif – not just of his father’s favour or partiality but also a bestowing of authority above all others. I wanted to convey the idea of rich colour and detail and possibly a more regal, authoritative quality.

Memory Series

The Memory series feature impressions of objects and images from childhood and youth. First Catch and Ocean Deep are evocative of marine life – alluding to the artist being raised near the island’s east coast beach and sharing a life-long interest in sea-life with her husband.
