energy cloth

Juried into Ontario Craft '11. Energy Cloth, hand stitch, wax resist, old cotton bed sheet, 160 cm x 160 cm or 58 inches square, 2011 I am pleased that my work is part of this juried exhibition. The show will be on display in the Ontario Craft Council gallery on Queen Street in Toronto from Nov 24 until Dec 30.
Quilt maker Joyce Seagram has a piece selected for the exhibition as does knitter/sculptor Tracey Martin. Otherwise, the jurors did not select many textile pieces. I only count six out of thirty five. Click here to see the entire list of artists selected.

Ah--ENERGY--the very thing I need on this cold, damp Wednesday evening in New York City. Now, if only the landlord would decide that heat is a human right, I'd be delighted.
