I love the idea of macramé, but buying string that has been shipped from overseas doesn't feel right to me in my art practice- for crafts, sure, but I knew I could do better. I love how this piece turned out. Ivy is NOT the same as macramé string, and it requires a gentle hand to work with it in this way. This practice is incredibly meditative once you get into the swing of things, however!
The Ivy I used in this piece was pulled with the support of Langley Environmental Partners in March 2022 in Aldergrove, BC.
