Heather Lee - Looming
Flax linen cord, jute twine, repurposed iron gate, glass beads, kelp, 165 x 85 x 15 cm, 2025
Looming delves into the intersection of materiality, movement, and spatial rhythm through the use of natural fibres, foraged kelp, bound on a repurposed iron gate. Guided by the delicate interplay of structure and intuition, Looming captures the subtle harmony of dual compositions. The piece reveals the quiet persistence of Yin-Yang elements that arise when opposing forces are held in balance. The revitalisation of natural and reclaimed elements grounds Looming in both resilience and impermanence. The kelp’s undulating forms and ephemeral textures echo natural cycles, embodying ecological sensitivity and temporal fragility, while introducing a living presence that subtly shifts over time. Layered and abstracted, the handcrafted construction disrupts habitual perceptions of space, encouraging a contemplative engagement with the material’s embedded memory and temporal trace.
