Voyage – A group of textiles artists drawn together from around the world who vary in both their experience and in the nature of expression of their art. Their work broadly encompasses the understanding of a quilt in its loosest form. We exist as a virtual group on the internet, posting our work on the blog and communicating via a group site to enable us to share our work and exhibit.
2017
We move forward from two successful exhibitions in 2016 in Prague and in the USA to the challenge of an exhibition in the Netherlands in the Autumn. We continue to work on A2 sized pieces in portrait format and will be producing four pieces over the year with the theme of 'Freedom'. An essential part of our art is working in series to a common format which does give us all a framework for our creative endeavours.

'LAAS GEEL'
My final piece is based on rock art from a place called Laas Geel in Sudan and depicts cattle. The back ground is ice dyed, the cattle raw edged appliqued. The magnificent horns are bark cloth.

Fabulous Gretchen. Your interpretation of the cattle is great! Well done, Magie
ReplyDeleteReally like the primitive shapes that are used .The background fabric and quilting add much to the overall effect.
