be scarves ~
The art series of silk scarves is called simply Be.
There is significance in this series title.
The artist writes...
"I observe that we Americans are busy - not necessarily fruitful – just spinning. I propose that within our rushing we have tragically misplaced our true sense of 'being.' And missing with it is our sense of well-being.
My mantra of late has been, ‘Slow down and live.’
I am learning that resting and simply being is an important ingredient of a healthier life rhythm.
After all…we’re not called human doings but human beings."
from nature ~
Be scarves are luxurious and artfully elegant. They are made of natural fiber and the colorful designs are always inspired from nature.
In the artist's words...
"In all my artwork, I frame the ordinary-profound so that others may take notice of it. For the human mind does not willingly regard as common that which is enclosed. Consider that anything wrapped, boxed, fenced, walled, encircled becomes noticeably significant. And so also with my silk ties and scarves, I am wrapping a beautiful “frame” of silk around someone of merit. I’m not adding value; rather I am pointing out the dignity, wonder, and divine image that are there already.
