My gaia - Original Nature Textile Artwork

€295.00

I didn't really make her.
I think I found her.

She came to me as a green girl with forest hair.

While I was weaving, a Romanian song about a green girl kept playing in my mind, and slowly she appeared — not planned, not sketched, but found somewhere between the threads, the moss, the grass and the little pieces of nature gathered along the way.

I shaped her face, then gave her butterflies, wild grasses, tiny flowers and pieces of the forest. Her butterflies were tied one knot at a time. Her hair became the forest.

And by the time I finished weaving, she was looking back at me.

My Gaia.

She is not meant to look like anyone.
She belongs to the wild.
