QUILTING
In South-Asia when women make quilts they use old and leftover pieces of material, however they don’t just use different color patches, they also use many different prints that already have many colors in them. All traditional clothing and decorations are multi-layered in color, prints and intricate detail as a carving in wood and engraving in stone etc. creating a fascinating blend where the eye finds something different to light upon at every new viewing. This series of mixed media works called Quilting uses that layered approach in color and detail, looking at first glance as if they have been thrown together in some haphazard manner; but on closer reflection the overall pattern comes through. This delicate lacework is combined with the fascinating variety in nature through the depiction of delicate and fascinating birds decked out in their plumage, though not always reproducing these in an exact replica of reality.
