Family History

We are spools of brightly coloured thread wrapped tightly around inner cores of light.
Passing days unravel and weave threads through families over generations of mothers and fathers, brothers, sisters, aunts and uncles ~ ancestors back and back and back………

Fabric - tapestry - bolts of cloth or small remnants ~
Each individual, each connection vital to the whole.
The vitality of a family, bright gold, shining silver and shadowed black tells the story of generations come, gone and moving into futures yet to be told.

“The tapestry of history has no point at which 
   you can cut it and leave the design intelligible.”.
~ Dorothea Dix
