Wood and Fiber Art
Peggy Harkins
Carpets! Something soft under your feet, something to sit on, something to have dinner on, or something to tell a story on. Carpets simply are beautiful and capture the depth of a culture in so many ways. These 'carpets' are sculpted out of wood (including folds) and are carved and painted. They can be put on the floor but they also look great on the wall. Below some examples of my latest work.
