My work explores the spring-fed rivers and creeks of San Antonio, where water is often scarce and deeply connected to the surrounding ecology. These woven pieces reflect the resilience of landscapes and communities shaped by cycles of drought, rain, and renewal, highlighting the intimate relationship between water, terrain, and human settlement in South Texas.

handwoven with tencel cotten and raw hemp
It is rooted in observations of the San Antonio River, this woven piece reflects the resilience of the river corridor. Woven with hemp fibers, it evokes the intricate root systems that anchor the trees along the river and endure through cycles of drought and rain.

Riverbed
2026
66 x 32 inches
handwoven with various fibers
This one reflects the spring-fed waterways of San Antonio during periods when only a small amount of water flows through the riverbed. The clear water, naturally filtered through limestone, reveals the stones beneath, highlighting the quiet beauty and geological character of the river corridor.

It is inspired by Salado Creek in San Antonio. This 66 x 30 inch woven piece reflects the renewal that follows much-needed rain. Woven with Spanish moss and embellished with Japanese silk cocoons as symbols of emerging wildflowers, celebrate the resilience and quiet beauty of the creek's ecosystem.
