Listen! Seamside with Zak Foster

 I had a thoughtful conversation recently with the brilliant quilter, artist and community builder Zak Foster for his Seamside podcast. I’ve always loved Seamside for Zak’s insightful chats with a range of textile talent from around the globe, discovering want inspires other artists and how they see the world and their creative space within it. Have a listen at  zakfoster.com , the page includes show notes with images of my quilts we discuss.

Morley College Textiles Foundation End of Year Show

  A few pictures of my final project ‘A Quilt As Sculpture’, for my textiles course at Morley College….see below for the exhibition text. A Quilt As Sculpture   I wanted to delve deeper into my quilting practice and explore the inherent qualities of a quilt and play with the functional, traditional way a quilt is made and considered. I began with the following statements to work against,   A quilt is a flat object A quilt is a soft object A quilt is a sewn whole piece A quilt usually has three layers A quilt is not seen through   An important consideration for me was to use only used or recycled fabrics.   I looked at the work of artists Caroline Broadhead, El Anatsui, Paul Hayes and traditional Mola textiles for inspiration during the making of this project.
