Artist Commentary

Label

"Irregular, broken blocks merge together to create a cohesive whole in this improvisational quilt. Breaks in each block are mended with the addition of a contrasting sliver of fabric. These unexpected shots of color, metallic flashes, and shiny silk bring a sense of luxury to the utilitarian aesthetic of the dominant fabrics."
