OF FIBRE AND LIFE... Bits and pieces of cloth sewn or glued together curtain the world. Bits and pieces of knowledge skillfully intertwined make up the study of history. Every civilization has this tradition of squirreling away precious fragments untill they are needed to create a whole. Works of art,especially in the 20th century are often nothing more than ordered fragmentations- with each fragment carrying it's own cultural load.

The Collar
This is a small section of the work on the collar;the "ten days allowed" reference is essential as part of the meaning of the work. I loved working on this small piece,and am looking forward to making other smaller pieces of work to stand with the dresses, but need to make the third dress before relaxing completely into the sample style work.
