The Weight of Air

$0.00

The Weight of Air is an abstract straw marquetry work made with hand-dyed rye straw in a palette of deep blue and warm beige. A geometric composition creates a rhythmic, meditative textural surface that shifts with light. Float framed in maple.

Doesn't it feel like sometimes, the air carries weight? Some days, it's light — buoyant even. But at other times, so heavy you feel about to be smothered. How does it feel today?

• Year: 2025
• Size: 36” x 24”
• Framed: 37.125” x 25.125” (float framed in Maple)
• Media: Dyed straw on wood panel

Part of The Wandering Path Series — Inspired by Bargello needlework, where rhythmic patterns emerge through the meticulous shifting of stitches, this series reflects a simple idea: life's most meaningful journeys are rarely straight, and it's in the detours that we find its richness.
