2015
in Tapestry Graffiti
This
tapestry depicts the world from my studio: the local weather, world events and
celestial happenings. Each day is represented by a square color-coded to
indicate the weather. A yellow square is a perfect Rose Bowl Parade—not a cloud
in the sky. A green square indicates rain. Black horizontal lines depict
earthquakes and small triangles— a variety of weather advisories. Short memorable phrases reference the turmoil
going on around the world and the more hopeful events happening in space. My
favorite— the NASA rover Opportunity that completed its first marathon on Mars
in a time of 11 years 2 months during the first quarter of 2015 and oblivious
to the rancor on earth continued its journey ending the year exploring the sand
dunes of Mars.
