Oil painting 2018
Inspired by travel in Western China, following the trail of the old Silk Road from Kashgar to Xi'An. In the city of Khotan I visited a women's co-operative textile weaving operation, working in both cotton and silk, and the teamwork of these two ladies at the loom inspired this painting. Products here included mats, carpets, tapestries and table covers, among others.
