Above the Horizon is part of my collection - An Ancient Hand.
An Ancient Hand, began with a beach pebble, whose distinctive lines, engraved on the surface by nature, caught my eye, while out walking along the coast.
I set about capturing the essence of those markings, by hand-printing canvas and then, once stretched, cocooning it in fine linen thread.
I love the juxtaposition of the fine linen with the locally produced jute twine (more often used in the garden). To me, these two, in combination, sum up what I love about coil basketry - its versatility and its accessibility.
Above the Horizon is a jute basketry bowl. A double-sided circle of hand-printed canvas, has been edged with gold-toned linen thread, and suspended above the horizon of the bowl, like the rising sun.
Size : Approx height at highest point - 21cm, approx diameter 22cm
