Black Finery
$10,000.00
Pieced, hand quilted, hand embroidered, 100% cotton
This piece, and it's related piece White Finery, is a material mantra - a meditiation - that came out of thinking about how changes happens over time - impermanence and also the irregular nature of change. They are not bound - the open edges on the side suggest an infinateness. The square itself is an undirected sense of time - unlike a liner sense of time - so in their stillness, they move in all directions.
These are three-dimsional layered pieces that overlap creating a texture that is at the heart of Gabriela D'Italia's best work.
Exhibited in Quilt National - an international biennal of the best contemporary quilts.
