Karen’s work has always incorporated story-telling, and a sense of ‘taking a line for a walk’. As she worked on this wall piece, the first in a series, it conjured thoughts of conversations, or journeys… often forging ahead confidently, sometimes meandering or digressing, but inevitably coming to resolutions or destinations.

Many folded bias pieces of banana-fibre inter-weave, criss-cross and meander over a circular frame, sometimes repeating, sometimes doubling-back, often taking a less obvious path.

International shipping is available for this item. Please enquire upon purchase.
