Debra Smith "Holding Light, Large #2" - Geometric Textile Artwork

2022

About the Item

Debra Smith Holding Light, Large #2, 2022 pieced vintage silk 48.4 x 72 in. (smi129) This original artwork by Debra Smith consists of black and cream-colored pieces of cut vintage silk, sewn together to form abstract, geometric shapes. Smith’s work is the result of both an intuitive process, formed from years of working with historic textiles, and a mindful practice. Each work is an open expression, constructed in an extraordinary way - with hours of stitching, embedding layer upon layer of material. With the visual sensibilities of a painter, Smith manipulates stripes and forms shapes with a gestural, geometric abstraction. She intuitively pieces found silk fabrics from vintage kimonos and men’s suit linings into a specific and well-developed visual language that relates more fully to drawing and painting than to the nature of textiles.
