I have grave concerns for the environment and human interaction with it. The images that I weave are based upon those concerns. I choose both “healthy” images–organically grown fruits like the apples shown, and “unhealthy” ones–like the cryphonecteria parasitica (chestnut blight). I also make images about the result of the use of Agent Orange in the Vietnam Conflict (Operation Ranch Hand).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"exhibiting-since-blurb\"\u003eWebsite\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.scanlintapestry.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"exhibiting-since-blurb\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003escanlintapestry.com\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"url":"https:\/\/piedmontcraftsmen.shop\/collections\/tommye-scanlin.oembed","provider":"Piedmont Craftsmen Craft Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
