Festival Ha'Rikud: Celebrating Friendship - 2017


I have a piece in this upcoming exhibition at the Sidney and Gertrude Zack Gallery opening May 4th, 2017.  I will not be able to attend the opening but would be happy to meet anyone there to check out the show before May 22 if you can make it.  For those who can not make it here is my piece and artist statement.


Look In, Reach Out, 20 x 20 Inches, Mixed Media Quilt

Friendship is a cornerstone. As human beings, we are constantly learning to connect, to talk to each other, to listen, to empathise and relate.  When engaging in friendship we also have a chance to have ourselves reflected in the mirror of our friend’s being.

The labyrinth is a tool for self reflection and a good friendship also fills this roll.  Through our engagement with the other we learn truths about ourselves.  If we are open, we can learn and form a deep bond that grows like a tree and blossoms into a lasting connection of spirit.  These bonds can help us weather the storms of life and support us on the journey of moving around the sun as a collective.
