Medium: Basketry

I began weaving in 2011 to give myself a break from everyday life, I was immediately taken by the craft. In 2019, I created Twisted Fibers Basketry so that I could teach others. I primarily weave with reed and cane from a woody tropical vine “calamus rotang” which is harvested in various parts of Asia. Most of my work / creations are utilitarian but also attractive.

Every now and then I’ll create something that is more artistic opposed to useful. I create to teach more than to sell a product.
