Variegated Threads

Variegated Threads, a World of Threads Festival exhibition in the Queen Elizabeth Park Community and Cultural Centre, Oakville, featured an eclectic collection of fibre works.

Barbara Rehus, Thanks, Ma.
A mechanically animated installation that made me grin.

This intensely stitched and buttoned work...

...made Mikey of Mallory by Marie Bergstedt.

Articulation Attends World of Threads Festival

The 1st festival exhibition Articulation attended was an independent solo show in Ristorante Julia.

Toronto artist, Mafalda Silva, showed Tangled Memories, a body of work about having life changing experiences while staying essentially the same person.

She shows this change by observing the natural world.

Mafalda stitched small amounts of colour into black and white photographs.

Stitching Completed on the Tree Cloths

I have stitched the last band on each of the 4 tree cloths.

Each cloth documents the growth of the tree over one year.

The cloth is a chromatic record of biological processes.

The colours and their sequence are different on each cloth.
