Reading the Tea Leaves

Ordinary Oracle: Reading the Tea Leaves has been selected for the 39th New Legacies: Contemporary Art Quilts Exhibit at the Lincoln Center Galleries, Fort Collins, Colorado. The show runs from June 10 to August 5, 2023. Ordinary Oracle: Glimpses will also be in the exhibit.

These works are quiet, meditative pieces. They are densely stitched and contain a lot of different textures and fabrics, mostly repurposed from clothing and domestic linens. I have backed them with woven wool. For this series, celebrating the visionaries among us, I was drawn to a more neutral color range and roughly textured fabrics.

I am thrilled to have two of these pieces accepted for exhibition.
