“Criss Cross Apple Sauce”

Pictorial weaving by Michele Laughing-Reeves titled “Criss Cross Apple Sauce,” woven with processed wool and bright aniline dyes. The composition features a dense field of vertical color bands overlaid with intersecting diagonal lines that create a layered crisscross pattern across the center. A wide spectrum of saturated hues, including reds, blues, greens, yellows, and neutrals, produces a vibrant, almost kinetic visual effect, while the structured striping maintains balance and symmetry. The playful title reflects the energetic, overlapping design, giving the piece a contemporary, graphic presence.
