What Holds Us

Music and dance has been present throughout my life, beginning with my parents Ukrainian carols and polkas, to singing and swaying with my friends at folk festivals. It is a legacy that has been passed onto my children, who both know the joy, solace, universal nature and connection these bring into our lives. My scraps of handwoven fabrics, (leftovers, another important aspect of my life in so many ways), trimmed with jewelry collected from travels, edge the piece like a welcoming Toran.
