Lecture
World Wide Whispers
|
PowerPoint Slide Show Presentation
1 hour The project is called World Wide Whispers. In a nutshell, it's a bit like the child's birthday party game where the leader starts by whispering a sentence in the ear of the next participant and then continues around the room, evolving and changing from the original sentence. Five countries participated in this World Wide Whispers project, Team Scotland, Team Ireland, Team Netherlands, Team USA and Team Canada. Each team started with the leader of their country (me for Team Canada), using an original photo as inspiration to create their piece, then photographing that finished piece, and sending that photo and artist statement to the next person on the team. That next team member then used that photo as their inspiration to create a piece, photographs it and sent it along to the next person, and so on and so on. Team Canada is comprised of 13 members, a representative from each province and territory. The completed collection has been presented and exhibited around the world. Kim will introduce you to each artist and their unique piece of this magnificent team project. *Please note: Physical quilts will be shown if available |
