Meditation on Breath 015
This collection of 18 weavings was made during a 3-week residency at AZ West in Joshua Tree, California in May of 2024. Over the course of the residency, Eliza made one woven work per day as an exercise in iterative design.
The concept of “meditation on breath” is an execution of quantitative design. Each piece contains 60 warp threads, representing the number of seconds per minute, and between 12 and 20 undulations of weft, representing the human average of breaths taken per minute. In this way, each work is an actualized rendering of the concept of breath. As the craft of weaving is often quite methodical and repetitive, the meditative quality of the process is infused into the work itself.
11 x 30.5 inches
cotton rope, linen, sisal
