Done Weeke



"The primary focus of my work is the creation of form. Texture is a secondary but necessary element. The making of the piece begins with a period of incubation where materials coalesce to form a fairly defined image. I then attempt to make real that image by combining the materials with a variety of traditional basketry techniques or an invented one, if necessary. I have never been able to exactly duplicate that intuitive image, but I'll keep trying - a lifelong process." - Don Weeke
