The Optimist

$0.00

Luminous and organic, The Optimist is a straw marquetry fiber artwork, composed of hand-dyed rye straw in a palette of yellow, rich brown, and golden beige. The straw has been laid in a radial burst composition that emanates from a slightly off-center focal point. The piece is both abstract and geometric, though many viewers will find it evocative of butterfly wings. The organic texture of each individual piece of straw reflects light differently depending on the viewer's angle, giving the surface a dynamic, tactile shimmer. Float framed in maple, 30in x 24in.

• Year: 2026
• Size: 30in x 24in
• Framed: 31in x 25in (float framed in maple)
