Woven Hues is a solo venture led by artist and self-taught basket weaver David Grieves, dedicated to creating modern, functional basketry. My work blends traditional weaving techniques with a modern eye for colour, texture, and function, all inspired by a deep connection to the natural world. Each piece is a high-quality, handcrafted basket designed for everyday use, meticulously built to serve as both an artistic statement and a practical item for daily life. My studio process is rooted in slow, intentional making, hand-dyeing materials, designing original patterns, and constructing every basket from start to finish.
The unique character of Woven Hues lies in this combination of organic forms, original patterns, and thoughtfully chosen hues that reflect explored landscapes and nature, particularly the ancient forests and waterways of Algonquin Park.
