First of all, I want to say thank you to everyone who participated in The Philpott Lake Project and The Mail Art Experiment. I can’t thank
you enough for the generosity with which you shared your art and the patience
you had with me throughout the process of putting together a webpage and
exhibit for each.
This round, I have a vision of creating a single piece of art incorporating
designs from 50-70 mail artists. Embroidery is something I love, and I
would like to make a redwork quilt with a square dedicated to each contributing
artist. Here is an excellent example of the type of quilt I hope to
create:
Since it will be just one piece, I plan on showing it in a group textile
exhibit when it is finished. The stitching will be incredibly time
consuming, so I am setting a goal of having the quilt completed in the fall of
2020. When it is done, I will send a print of the finished piece to each
contributor. As designs are received and pieces are stitched, I will post
updates at redworkpost.tumblr.com
If you would like to participate, please send a design that fits within a
7x7 inch square (I expect it will have a ½ inch to one-inch border).
Ideally, I would like you to incorporate your name and city into your square,
but other than that the subject matter is entirely up to you.
Technically I would like simple line art (no shading or blocks of color)
and you should be able to trace over your design with a fat marker without it
getting muddled.
Thank you, I hope you consider joining in on the madness!
