Luckily, there remains the resilient presence of Indigenous cultures where people still pluck the fibres for their craft from the Earth. Where they process the strands which will warp their looms and eventually swaddle their infant or cover their bed. This is why weaving is the most prominent metaphor in myth and lore for life and the connections that drive it — a visceral action which keeps the weaver in tune with the rhythms and relations of their environment. Through this intentional craft, the weaver is not just making cloth; they are embodying and replicating the deepest principle of existence. These pieces are in reverence of the flawless machine that is nature. Which allows every organism to function in its authenticity for symbiosis and evolution. And in the overlap, species meld into one another creating even richer diversity. Every last creature matters; removing one creates a hole, a vulnerability in the greater web.
