This Friday's Feature artist is Alicia Merrett and her Contemporary Art Quilts!
I especially enjoy her latest work on maps and cities and would love to own one of her Map Fragments!
From her artist statement:
I have always been interested in towns and cities, and their imprint on our earth, but with my move to Somerset, the landscape, the weather, the seasons, the time of day and night, have acquired a different significance.
Rivers have an unexpected relevance, and views from above have become a fascination.
Man’s imprint on the landscape is still everywhere, but life develops differently.
I observe the world around me with fresh eyes and map it, record it, and imagine it, in my new work.
