Made to Order: Lichen and Lands Dreaming
Lichen Mother:
Ancestor of the Wild Hills.
They who sing songs
Of clear blue air
And catch the bark of Trees.
They who cloak
The Hawthorns body
In the green threads of our
Primordial belonging.
Lichen Mother:
Bringer of Union
Merge and symbiosis,
The Lands poetic science:
They who grace the living bones
In otherworldly adornment.
Holy in their sacred silence
And integral to the lands dream.
Wild Horse Hill Woman;
In devotion to your keening.
Conjured from the wild locks of regeneratively farmed Fernhill sheep from Somerset, alongside naturally dyed green woollen thread, wild harvested silks and the peat browns of Hebridean fibres, this piece is draped in the essence of the Land.
Its dream is to honour the spiralling lineage of ancestors that led to its wearer being cloaked in a weaving made in reverence to the mystery and magic of how we came to be.
The inspiration of Lichen is one that has captivated me for nearly 10 years. I've journeyed deep with the alchemy of this otherworldly being, and feel blessed that it caresses the ancient oak woodland just above my current home.
I wanted to celebrate the turning of the season, and the illumination of the lichen, peat, browns and fading greens present in the depths of Autumns grasp. It feels as though the spirits of this place wanted to be seen and alchemised into a strong, soft and radiant cloth.
May its essence ripple healing throughout all Lands…
