Improv Mosaic – de Young Open SOLD

2020, 54″ x 54″, Cotton, Machine pieced and quilted

Juried into the de Young Museum Bay Area Open Exhibition in 2020. Using variations on a traditional log-cabin quilt block and small solid fabric scraps recycled from other projects, I south to create a quilt with pulsing energy and color. With the self-imposed parameter to limit block sizes to 9, 2 and 3 inches, each block is developed using as much variety in color, “wonky” sizes and contract as possible, to create block that pop and move to the viewer. The improvisational nature is furthered by a random, puzzle-piece layout.
