The Jumis symbol is an ancient Latvian sign that represents fertility, prosperity, and the balance between dual forces. In folklore, it signifies a blessing of abundance—two united grains growing as one. Traditionally woven into belts and textiles, it functioned as a protective emblem, inviting bountiful harvests, household harmony, and the thriving of life in all its forms.

The artist is inspired by traditional Latvian and historical symbols and fell in love with weaving long ago. Fifteen years ago, her father built wooden looms by hand so she could weave from home as well. All of her pieces are woven from wool and linen.
