I seek out irregular patterns and color play in architecture, furniture, textiles, clothing. My work is informed by interrupted fenestration patterns, repurposed fresco walls, bamboo fences, stacked storage units, all manner of fabric constructions – whatever generates offset grids. I have long admired African kente cloths for their beauty and directness, simplicity and playfulness. Each vertical strip is divided by horizontal stripes, stitched together to create the cloth. These stripes create patterns of connection or interruption with inexact repetitions –clear evidence of their maker’s hand. In these I see a direct analogy between textile and text – the construction of fabric and the process of writing. Both have methodical underpinnings – a structure that provides the framework for development. Woven strips are akin to written sentences: both can be rearranged to re-contextualize, to forge relationships, to develop meaning. In my weaving, I incorporate a repeating rhythm of cord wefts. These visually subdivide while physically tying to create the whole. These cords form the scaffold for the tapestry while producing a second, complicating scrim. The two systems are mutually supportive, yet generate visual conflict. Through color and weave I create rhythms which coalesce or splinter, calling across the field to engage with each other. This woven language is not code – it does not refer to specific thoughts. Through abstraction I find freedom for interpretation, and discovery. https://www.blairtate.com/new-page-1 daily 0.75 2019-09-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d6d871ec858a7000122c130/1567465333244-FLGTBBK3PP1QC1034VFX/ReVisions-lobby-view-x.jpg Introduction - About commissions For commissioned, site-specific work, elements of the design — the scale of the strips and the overall configuration — are generated from the site itself. Each tapestry is constructed of separately woven vertical strips incorporating weft cords which are tied to form the fabric. These cords are both pictorial and structural — they visually subdivide while structurally uniting the woven field As in all of my weaving, my working process employs methods borrowed from the act of writing: I interject woven quotations from my artistic sources, delete sections to reveal the wall beneath, and rearrange, add and subtract strips as if revising a written text.

Double Spiral plays with the Fibonacci progression, but begins in the middle so that the extremes of 1 and 1,597 are juxtaposed at the top.

Small Gemelli is a loosely constructed plaid.It exposes and clarifies each element of weaving — counted wefts follow a small doubling sequence within parallel warps which leave all weft ends exposed.
