A Note from the Artist

I grew up on a farm, so it is partly in homage to my father and partly in humor that I refer to my process as reverse farming. Harvested plant materials paired with rusted iron objects (often old farm implements) makes possible a wide variety of virtually permanent color marks on silk through direct contact printing. Since 2007, I have adapted shibori techniques to broaden the scope of my landscapes and farm stories which develop organically--outdoors, where, as in real farming, the season, temperature, humidity and timing affect the outcome.

I have worked hard to create this growing body of work. Please respect my art. Unless otherwise noted, all images and text on this blog are copyright Patricia Vivod. Reproduction of any kind is expressly prohibited without written consent.
