Helen Webber 1983 abstract Fiber Art Tryptyc, numbered 4/100 on a hand written label. The collage-like construction technique reflects broader artistic trends of the era that valued process and material experimentation. By cutting and layering various textiles with different weaving patterns and weights, Webber created dimensional effects that transformed flat fabric into sculptural relief. Construction reflects fiber art movement of 1960s-80s when textile artists elevated craft techniques to fine art status through emphasis on material properties and abstract representation. Wear is consistent with age and use.
