In July 2019, at Arts Letters & Numbers in Averill Park, NY, a group weaving project was initiated with THESIS summer residents and continued during the July Open Studio event, engaging participants in a collaborative creative process.

Mathematically, a torus is a three-dimensional ring or doughnut-shaped form through which energy flows. As it spins, a vortex emerges along its central axis—a pattern found throughout the universe, from hurricanes and galaxies to atomic structures. Nikola Tesla’s experiments with energy harnessed this form in the development of his famous coil.

​

Within this framework, Collective Vortex Weaving explores the potential energy generated through the intersection of art and life. The Vortex Weave process fosters connection, enhances spatial awareness, and expands the energetic possibilities of weaving. By engaging in communal weaving, participants embody the collaborative spirit needed to shape the future. Through intentional action, they contribute to a healthier, more regenerative world.
