“For about fourteen years, I’ve been translating my illustrations, collages, and paintings into my rug designs that are hand-knotted in Nepal. In my latest series “Where Wings Tangle” I bring the process full circle - incorporating the same yarns used in my rugs, back into my artwork as embroidered elements. My rugs inspire my art, and then my art inspires my rugs. I find my practice helps me stay grounded in a craft that has shaped my livelihood, while paying tribute to the weavers I’ve been collaborating with for over a decade.” — Robyn Waffle
