Where do you hang a tapestry in a house with very few walls? My clients and I decided to create a valance. Garden Masque tells the story of a pesky raccoon and his attempts to steal the grapes off the vines growing in my clients' yard. A narrative sequence of images is fundamental to much medieval tapestry. The imagery in the three seasonal garden panels contain personal references for my clients and their family. These panels alternate with four panels that show the development of a grape vine over the course of a year. The organizational motif of the tapestry reflects the geometric principles used in the architectural plan for the house.
