The Soft Grain of Moss and Time, measuring 23" x 18" x 5", is a three-dimensional textile sculpture capturing the intimate texture of birch bark, rendered in layers of wool and silk. Its surface reveals the peeling, weathered quality of the tree’s trunk, with subtle patches of green, brown, and yellow suggesting moss and lichen quietly growing over time. The piece’s irregular form and tactile fibers invite close inspection, offering a quiet reflection on natural aging and the interplay between bark and moss. The restrained color palette of whites, grays and greens, grounds the sculpture in simplicity while the nuanced details create a vivid sense of life and texture.
