Life is a dance between questions and answers, yet where is the balance between these two states? Is one trapped within a particular wheeI until they move out of it? I started the layout and creating "Wondering Wheel" during the Spring of 2020, as a reflection of the "merry -go-round" sort of existence, that I, and many of us were living in at the time, and are yet experiencing. Viewers may be drawn to this piece due to its dreamy and surreal subject matter, maybe "wondering", because of the arrangement of the colors and the spectacle of a "Ferris" wheel. Who are the people flying out of the wheel in the upper right-hand corner? Are they happy? Are they feeling free? As juxtaposition to the upheaval, I chose specific colors longing for the palette of spring, to focus on, and infuse into my own consciousness. It takes me at least 3 months to create a piece of this size, from a variety of cotton fabrics and thread. Sometimes I incorporate sewn in glass beads to enhance the design.
