(Colorado State University. Libraries, 2014) Davis, Hayley, artist
The artist's statement: Working with fiber-based arts has always felt natural to me. I find myself drawn to the comforting familiarity found in cloth and thread, while simultaneously having the capability to convey my artistic message. Through the use of these methods and materials, I create linear illustrations that explore memory, place, and time. The ability of the viewer to recognize the structure of a textile is just as important to me as the significance in the drawings on it; by this, enabling a conversation to occur between the medium and meaning of a work.
