Mixed Media Art Quilt
Size:
Materials: Patchwork quilted background, buttons, paint, children's clothing, clothespins
Methods: Machine and hand quilted, hand painted, hand appliqué, hand embroidery, and embellishments.
Artist Statement:
Hate crimes in the US often go unreported or realized. For some it becomes a way of life starting as bullying. This work defines the most targeted groups and what constitutes a hate crime. Lets work to educate ourselves and others about what constitutes a hate crime and then work to end all hate crimes.
History:
2012 Facing Race Conference Social Justice Artists exhibit, Philadelphia, PA
2013 Central High National Park Site, Social Justice solo exhibit, Little Rock, AR
2013 Mosaic Templars Cultural Museum, Social Justice solo exhibit, Little Rock, AR
Hanging: Each work has a sleeve on the back to hang the work. It can be hung on a wooden slat flat against the wall or on a curtain rod. After purchase I will send hanging and care information. Works can also be framed if you choose.
