The silk screen triptych, Contemplation,<br />
has come together after visits to the abbey<br />
ruins of North Yorkshire. It is a combination<br />
of their various architectural details. I chose<br />
the golden hour of early evening light to<br />
influence colour.<br />

Contemplation<br />
Textile<br />
80cm x 60cm<br />
The silk is dyed in varied yellow gold<br />
shades and then over printed using batik<br />
wax resist. Textured fabrics are collaged<br />
over the batik. Finally the pieces are both<br />
machine and hand embroidered. The three<br />
panels are hinged together so it can be free<br />
standing.<br />
The ruins in greys, creams and peach<br />
contrast with the yellow gold light of<br />
evening on the translucent silk.<br />
