STAR ornament 012 (fabric: GLYPHS)

This sweet little star ornament is made by me from fabric from my first collection: GLYPHS.

Each star is about 3 inches by 3 inches at the widest point.

About the GLYPHS collection:


When I am drawing I am trying to understand and communicate with the world using an ever-changing vocabulary of marks. The drawings made for my first fabric collection—GLYPHS—were born from a series of marks asking questions around ‘what can language be made of?’
I think about the symbols from this collection as markers that could stand for ideas, time, and emotion and they serve as visual space holders to represent entire landscapes of experience.
Each pattern in the collection was named in honor of an African American women writer, poet or playwright from post-Civil War America, through the Harlem Renaissance to present day. These were but a few of the ancestors & teachers whom I consider to be the rich foundation from where I get to experience what language can do—how it can remember histories, imagine futures, and leave spaces to contain new unfolding experiences.

All ornaments are one-of-a-kind, 2025.
