Sue Weil’s Artist Statement

My designs are intentionally spare, often abstract, and minimalist in style and composition. Works may be simple, direct, emotional, and sometimes fantastical, allowing space for each viewer to reference their own life experiences. Weaving attracts me for its simplicity: two opposing sets of threads twining together to create a whole. Working at the loom provides me the opportunity to sit in the stillness of my thoughts, allowing my hands to think.
