Darlyn Susan Yee celebrates the cultural significance of traditional fiber methods and their influence on contemporary art. Throughout history, fiber and textile methods have become synonymous with the cultures they represent. Her consuming passion is the aspect of each tiny detail interacting with the others to form a whole.
She uses techniques that were once considered women's work, or home arts, to create pieces of museum quality fine art. Due to her contemporary approach to traditional technique, Darlyn's work has been shown in a wide range of galleries and museums. Her fiber sculptures and mixed media works have won numerous awards in local, national and international competitions.
