A Feather For The Goddess, Isis
woven hand-spun wool, felted wool, foraged antique buttons
10″ x 10″
2024
This feather is made with hand-carded fiber blended to create a delicate texture. The background is hand-woven using the same wool fiber as the feather, spun into a two-ply yarn on a spinning wheel. The buttons were sourced from local antique shops, with the top left one representing the sun disk above Isis Cattle Horns, one for the Moon, and the final one tied with three strings representing the pyramids of Egypt. The Goddess Isis is known for her protection of Women, Motherhood, Healing and also was believed to have taught the women of Egypt weaving.
