Lavender Fields Forever

Size:

61"W x 86"H

Year:

The artist created a wall piece with her mother as her inspiration as well as a field of lavender she photographed underneath Half Dome in Yosemite. While using both her hands and feet to weave, Amadi imagined a place of pure tranquillity she and her mother would’ve enjoyed together. With weaving and practices of mindfulness her mother had taught her, she fantasized a romantic scene of a mixture of her childhood memories and abstract shapes. To imagine this fantasy, Amadi focused her mind on the woven pattern sequence for the cloth, and textures of the yarns, and practiced explorations of two colors along with their tonal qualities. In this color exploration, she wanted to create a marriage of the beauty of purple from the lavender flower with the symbolic color for pancreatic cancer. The artist imagines this work as a landscape that brings her pure bliss in remembrance of her mother by her side.
