Asymmetrical and organic, What the Cabin Keeps 2 is a geometric straw marquetry wall panel, built around a pentagon spiral. The dyed rye straw has a palette of deep cool browns (think dark walnut). The surface grain of each geometric facet catches light differently as the viewer moves around the composition, making the piece seem to shift and shimmer as the viewer moves around it. Float framed in black, 12in x 12in.
Year: 2026
Size: 12in x 12in
Framed: 13in x 13in (float framed in black)
Media: dyed straw on wood panel

Part of the Warmth Series — This series draws inspiration from historic American quilt blocks — objects made by hand, often by mothers and grandmothers, passed down through generations. There's something unpretentious about that kind of making: patient, precise, and offered as an act of love.
