What the artist says:

Living in the North it’s easy to take rain for granted. Greenery, streams and rivers are part of the Northern visual vocabulary.

​The textures and contrasts of landscape inspire me. In this piece warp and rain become one. The two levels depict stages in the process of the blessings coming into the world. The falling rain as well as being the foundation of the tapestry, also moves from above to below to a more physical plane, emphasised by the textured waterfall and the transition from one level to another.
