The Fiber Artist behind YASHI DESIGNS
ARTIST STATEMENT
Art for me is all about emotions and joy which I experience in the wilderness and the thoughts I experience in daily life. I take a personal approach to each of my pieces by exploring color, texture, and material characteristics and working with techniques like knotting, weaving, wood working etc to illustrate my sensory encounters into depth and movement of textured wall sculptures. Most of my artwork is in natural, neutral cords to suit any modern organic & minimalist interior decor style. On the other hand, I also love to create designs with splashes of bright color inside of my usual neutral, subtle patterns to fit more contemporary styles.
I like to weave my own canvas by manipulating rope and using the material characteristics to translate my vision into an artwork. All of my artwork tells a story that resonates with the modern aesthetic. From earthy colors and raw textures to natural materials like jute, cotton, linen, hemp and wood, each artwork reflects my love for the world we inhabit. It's so calming to see the connection of how knots work together, to form an art using humble rope.
"I like to push boundaries of fiber artistry and create innovative designs that captivate and inspire."
I wish people to look at my work and imagine their favorite place in nature, where they feel calm, completely at peace and the anxieties of everyday life can simply fade away.
