Art Piece: This mosaic of fabric suggests the diversity and fulfillment of life, while embracing that which is natural, new, familiar and different. An extra layer of wool batting between the front and back gives texture to the extensive thread-work throughout the piece. The range of colour adds to the interest and movement, which reflect the excitement and sheer joy of being alive, experienced by the artist’s daughter.
