The fifty-two pieces of textile artwork that make up the ‘artless fabrications’ exhibit have finally arrived in their rightful home!
The journey has been an unusual one, covering many miles and bringing us to unexpected places, but there is a true sense of being home when I look around the gallery space and see the 52 steps that led me here. It seemed fitting that the vacant space on the main floor below my working studio be turned into this wonderful gallery, in order to properly display the body of work that was the catalyst in bringing us to our new life in Saskatchewan. The idea of seeing the potential of a run-down storage area and building it up to this elegant gallery space runs parallel with building up my courage to publicly exhibit my artwork. Life is an adventurous journey – be brave and take that first step towards your dreams. Trust me, they can come true.
