#artquilt — Public Fediverse posts

Here’s a square I made for an art quilt a couple of years ago. This was part of a community project, with one quilt made by Indigenous people and the other by settlers and immigrants. Our squares were to show what we think is important about where we come from. Mine has a bunchberry blossom surrounded by cattails representing wetlands and woodlands on a white background of snow. #quilt #design #Indigenous #art #ArtQuilt #beadwork #embroidery #felt #cattails #bunchberry #crackerberry

This piece has been a work-in-progress for many months. It began as a way to work through my feelings about the most recent danger to democracy and the desperate need for systemic change. I hope it speaks to you, as it did to me. 1/3

Minds and Voices are a peer support group for people living with dementia in York.

I've learnt from them, trying to share their wisdom via art, for almost five years.

Every meeting is full of smiles, love, empathy and the truth of their lives.

Before I left for Porto, I made them a quilted banner (5 x 1.5 metres).

The words and the hands are all theirs.

It's called 'I Want To Speak Please'
