Care of our planet is a guiding theme in Molly McLaughlin’s life. She weaves her art with the intention of creating connections to the beauty of the natural world around us. Her fiber practice is focused on keeping eco-friendly textile traditions alive by dyeing her fibers with foraged and home grown plants, using non-computerized weaving techniques, and re-using fibers salvaged from abandoned textiles. It is a slow process that allows Molly more time to fully explore her woven imagery.
