Our mission is to create works of textile art that evoke movement through material, design, and process.

Each of our skills as craftsmen, artists, and designers are woven together to create one-of-a-kind works of living art. We draw our inspiration from the art and culture that link us to the long and rich history of textiles and art, allowing us to continue the ancient conversation in a contemporary way. Each limited-edition piece beckons participation and requires your experience to be complete.

The first art is nature. Using natural materials not only connects us to this original art, but also means that every piece is alive in the vitality of its yarns. Animated by light and shadow, each piece is an impression of a moment, made up of the irreplicable interactions between space, time, and self.

In our dedication to making works of movement, we keep four commitments to guide us.

 

1.Make works of beauty.

2.Use natural materials.

3.Elevate the practice of craftsmanship.

4.Cultivate a virtuous circle.
