Laurentian Hills, detail, upper panel by Meredith Filshie bottom panel by Robin Field |
It is a piece that I am including in the France show, Tradition in Transition.
What I liked about it was the fact that 20 women worked on it together. Each created a quadrant in textile of the painting entitled Saint Sauveur by Anne Savage, a contemporary of the Group of Seven.
Laurentian Hills, detail, panel by Deborah Bates It is all stitched! -something I missed when I saw the photograph |
Having the piece there in front of me was so much better than seeing the picture! There is such detail in every panel.
Cynthia McNair's 12 inch square panel |
Bethany Garner's 12 inch square panel |
Mary Cope's 12 inch square panel |
All twenty panels fit together harmoniously yet each is an individual work of art and reflects the artist's style.
