Framed Silk Artwork - Smoke & Gold

A one of a kind framed silk artwork created using a proprietary blend of plant-based dyes. This piece captures the liminal space between light and shadow, soft clouds of ivory and charcoal fold into tendrils of rust, gold, and ash. Evoking the rising of mist from sacred ground, like memory made tangible.

The silk has been left intentionally exposed - not placed behind glass - allowing light to interact directly with its texture and sheen. This choice invites the viewer to experience the natural movement and dimensionality of the botanical dyeing process.

Each pattern is revealed rather than painted, made through a slow alchemical process using plants, minerals, and time. Due to the organic nature of natural dyes, subtle evolution may occur over time, especially with prolonged light exposure. This is not a flaw, but part of the living poetry of the piece and a reminder to embrace impermanence and beauty in flux. 

Float mounted in a contemporary brushed metallic frame and signed discreetly on the reverse. A singular work. A visual offering. A quiet invocation of depth and presence.

***This piece is available for collectors who feel called to it. It holds deep personal resonance and may remain in the artist’s permanent collection unless the right home is revealed.***
