Sarah and I work together as SilkDenim. You can see our product line on ETSY. We also share a birthday. This is a portrait I made for her to celebrate our latest one:
In addition to what we share, we each follow our independent interests. Sarah is a feldenkrais practitioner and an active member of the RustBelt FiberShed.
All of this plus more is featured in a The World of Sustainable Fiber Arts in Pittsburgh | Weaving Stories into Community new documentary short by by Molly Tighe at WQED
Uncover the magic of fiber art! Join artist Erin Carlson as she revives the heritage craft of transforming humble flax into beautiful linen with the Rust Belt Fibershed, exploring the historical roots of this ancient practice and the journey towards sustainable fiber production. Discover the power of local sourcing and eco-conscious creation with fiber artist Gretchen Graff and the One Year One Outfit project. Finally, meet celebrated quilt maker Louise Silk and her designer daughter Sarah, who are pushing the boundaries of fiber art while honoring time-honored techniques.
