Jenny Suurland

Creating fibre art quiets my mind, so I can hear the truth that I often forget is there. I organize chaos, make marks of my thoughts, and settle into my self. Also, I like to make cool stuff.

Luscious fabric, threads, beads, colour and texture have been a passion all my life. Combining them when creating fibre art is a joy and immensely satisfying. I simply want to create something beautiful, original and at the same time explore.

Creating a fibre art piece is fun, unpredictable and challenging. Fibre Art allows you to explore the use of a variety of materials and techniques in your art piece. It allows your creativity to go wild. Creating never gets boring.

Felting brings out my fanciful side while providing an excuse to experiment and play. I gravitate to whimsical pieces that make me smile and hopefully others too. A newfound appreciation of mushrooms has them popping up in all my work.

I am a lacemaker and use lace to give dimension and texture to a piece of art. Sometimes the lace is traditional but other times it may surprise you.

I use mostly quilting techniques to create landscape fibre art, influenced by incredible fibre works from generations of prairie women. The colour and textures of textiles, beads, seeds, and threads are as inspiring as the beauty of nature.

Creating Fibre Art is about sharing my connection with nature. It is a way to convey my ideas, stories and values. More than a business, creating fibre art is self expression; slightly addictive and extremely therapeutic!

I love the tactile quality of threads, fibres and textiles. The potential to use or alter the surface, manipulate, combine, embellish and raise the surface is wide open.

Making fibre artworks invites me to extend my creative horizons by welcoming and exploring new possibilities. Integrating alert, focused attention with a contemplative rhythm and pace nourishes me, body and soul. Fibre arts, I’ve discovered, are essential to my well-being.

I’m fascinated by puzzles and shapes and how they fit together. Filling in with colour and texture using fabric, beads, threads and stitches, either traditional or experimental, overlapping, building up the creation. Framing as a box often completes the art.

Colours, textures and the tactile feel of fibre materials inspire me. I enjoy the challenge of figuring out how to make these materials and techniques work together to interpret an idea or subject into a fibre art piece.

Creating with fibre is very sensory; the colours, the variety of textures and even the smell take you out of your thoughts and into a place of expression.

I have always loved working with my hands. Felting with natural fibres such as wool, silk & alpaca fibre offers endless possibilities to create art that is not only beautiful to look at but also lovely to use or wear.
