Visions in Fabric

Visions in Fabric by Priscilla McEown

Visions In Fabric by Priscilla McEown

       " The works of humanity cannot compare to the works of nature.  As a self-taught quilt artist, one of my goals has been to pay homage to the natural environment in which we dwell.  As I walk the forest trails or contemplate the reflections in a mountain stream there is a powerful sense of being connected to something greater than ourselves.  I hope to instill in each piece of work my own emotional reactions, my sense of awe and wonderment, of excitement or peacefulness and, not least, of unity with this habitat.  I remain open to new ways of seeing and expressing and have recently experimented with a degree of abstraction in some of my landscape work.

Working with fabric is a wonderfully tactile as well as visual experience. Initially I started with traditional geometric designs but quickly found that I preferred more free-form, less restrictive, organic shapes.  This led to developing original designs and construction techniques. All of my work is machined-pieced and machine-quilted with some occasional applique. I use mostly batik cotton prints which I admire for their sometimes intense and sometimes muted colours and unique, one-of-a-kind patterns." P McEown 2004
